Here's a fun fact: Chegg, Fiverr, and Teleperformance didn't collapse overnight. They had warning signs. Lots of them. The problem? Nobody was paying attention. I spent some time digging through the wreckage of companies AI has already destroyed, and I found something interesting. Before these stocks tanked, they all showed the same four tells.

Here's what's happening: The AI buildout has two acts. Act One was all about training—getting those massive models to learn. That's done. Now we're in Act Two: inferencing and orchestration.
