On April 13, The Block reported that StarkWare is laying off employees and restructuring into two business units. The zero-knowledge rollup development company is expanding from being solely an infrastructure provider to developing its own products to achieve 'meaningful revenue.' This adjustment was announced by co-founder and CEO Eli Ben-Sasson during a company-wide meeting on Monday. He did not disclose the specific number of layoffs or the timeline but stated that this streamlining is necessary to return to a 'startup mentality' and accelerate product-market fit. He also mentioned that affected employees would receive email notifications shortly after the meeting and would be invited to have one-on-one discussions with their direct managers. Additionally, in many jurisdictions, StarkWare will offer severance compensation that exceeds legal and contractual requirements.

According to monitoring by 1M AI News, Baoyu (@dotey), the author of the popular open-source Skill collection baoyu-skills (approximately 14,000 stars on GitHub), has publicly announced a split with the AI Agent skill registration platform ClawHub on X. The issue he raised is that after releasing the new Skill baoyu-diagram on GitHub, someone forked the code and registered the same name on ClawHub within 24 hours, preventing the original author from publishing under his own account. This situation has occurred repeatedly, with several of his Skills being registered by different users. Baoyu has reached out publicly to Peter Steinberger, the founder of the open-source AI Agent tool OpenClaw, three times since March 10. Steinberger initially stated that the code had the capability for ownership transfer but required more UI work, inviting the community to submit pull requests. Baoyu subsequently proposed two UI solutions. However, today Steinberger's response changed tone: 'I know this is bad, but the rule is first come, first served. If we arbitrarily take back names registered by others, this issue will never end. Unless you have a trademark, that's another matter.' Baoyu responded, 'I completely disagree': 'The 'first come, first served' without any protection only means that whoever registers quickly wins, not who is actually doing the work.' He stated that his work has been repeatedly registered by others, the platform is aware but takes no action, and creators have no reason to continue contributing, announcing he would no longer submit content to ClawHub. He proposed alternatives like namespace ownership and cooling windows, but received no response. On the same day, Teknium, co-founder of Nous Research, the parent company of the open-source AI Agent framework Hermes Agent, proactively invited Baoyu: if the Skill is of good quality, it could be included as an optional built-in Skill for Hermes Agent, granting permanent attribution and exclusive ownership. After Baoyu shared the repository, Teknium tested it and reported excellent results, requesting to communicate further via private message.

According to monitoring by 1M AI News, Eric Simons, CEO of the AI full-stack application development platform bolt.new, posted on X that last fall at an Anthropic dinner, he sat next to the CTO of a competing product, Lovable, and directly asked someone from Anthropic, "When are you going to make me and this guy unemployed?" The other person's expression "said it all." Recently, several screenshots have circulated on X showing that Anthropic is developing full-stack application generation features within Claude, allowing users to generate complete applications with databases and authentication simply by inputting a description, similar to what Lovable and bolt.new are doing. Anthropic has not yet confirmed this. Simons stated that when bolt.new launches in October 2024, he anticipated that everyone would enter this field. This has indeed been the case over the past year: new companies have emerged, Replit has transformed, and Wix, Figma, and Google have all entered the market. He believes that "the phase of easy growth is officially over," comparing the current situation to 2021: companies chasing high growth with high churn rates have hit a ceiling, and excessive funding and valuations may turn into liabilities. The way forward is to focus on specific workflows with high retention rates, ensuring that financing is sufficient for operations but does not inflate valuations to a point where they cannot be sustained in the next round.

On April 13, renowned short-seller and founder of Muddy Waters, Carson Block, issued a startling warning: as AI disrupts the market, bets against the U.S. stock market will be "smooth sailing." Carson Block stated that AI could trigger a market shock greater than the 2008-2009 global financial crisis. For those short-sellers who have endured years of "hard times" in the U.S. stock market, this undoubtedly opens the door to profit once again. Block noted that with the rapid proliferation of AI, the economy and markets will face profound impacts in the coming years, as turmoil in the job market will inevitably affect government finances and financial stability. "In the medium to long term, there will be severe economic and market consequences, as well as financial issues for governments, which I believe will make the global financial crisis seem trivial in comparison." He added, "As a short-seller, this will be an excellent opportunity to thrive," comparing it to the substantial profits earned by short-sellers who bet on the market crash in 2008. In recent years, many prominent short-sellers have retreated and closed their firms, including Jim Chanos, who shorted Enron before its collapse in 2001, and Nathan Anderson of Hindenburg Research. Block's prediction signifies that after years of struggle, U.S. stock short-sellers may be on the verge of a turnaround.
