I think the section on AI from Zero to QED (a proofs in Lean/lang guide) gives a sober path forward from the perspective of market-makers and trading:
"Imagine market infrastructure where agents must prove, before executing, that their actions satisfy regulatory constraints, risk limits, fairness properties, and eventually machine-checkable proofs of Pareto efficiency of market mechanisms. This is a big, hairy, ambitious goal. Not “we reviewed the code” but “the system verified the proof.” The agent that cannot demonstrate compliance cannot act."
So now that another admin is in power, it's useful to have accurate numbers. But during the last several administrations, job posting numbers were used to backstop failing economic activity, especially post covid.
I'm not mad it's happening, I'm mad it's taken this long to do.
