Скачать или смотреть How an 'AI Panic' Broke Seattle's Tech Culture

Why did a city built on Microsoft and Amazon turn so hostile to AI? This video breaks down one founder's awkward lunch that exposed a citywide problem, and explains how panic, layoffs, and top-down pressure created an AI caste system that is crushing innovation in Seattle. If you heard the phrase "Her reaction wasn't about me at all. It was about her entire environment," this clip is the key to understanding everything that follows. Watch to hear how one conversation revealed a destructive cycle that turned world-class talent into a bitter, risk-averse workforce.

Key takeaways:
A single lunch exposed a pattern of hostility toward AI, driven by workplace frustration, not the technology itself.
The "AI panic" came from intense market pressure and layoffs, forcing companies to prioritize AI labels over real value.
Internal, broken AI tools plus restrictions on fixing them created a new workplace hierarchy, the AI caste system.
The resulting vicious cycle destroys morale, blocks innovation, and teaches engineers that their job is no longer to invent.
This is not a problem of talent, it is a cultural, top-down failure. Belief and mindset can matter more than skills alone.
