The Verification Economy
When capable agents make production cheap, the scarce work moves upstream into specification and downstream into proof.

AI may be made of software, but its expansion is being governed by substations, queues, turbines, transformers, and time.

When software can choose, run and interpret the next experiment, discovery becomes a closed-loop production system.

AI hardware is turning semiconductor packaging from an afterthought into the place where systems are designed, constrained and won.
