Auto-Research Systems Find 100x More Experiments, Not 100x More Insight
Auto-research works when you automate the experiment loop, not when you give an LLM broad autonomy.
AI Hiring Filters Are Quietly Rejecting Your Best Engineers
Most AI hiring systems optimize for resume conformity, not engineering signal.
Multi-Agent Systems Need Org Charts, Not More Prompts
