Agent Psychosis: Are We Going Insane?
What’s going on with the AI builder community right now?

Karpathy says developers have 'AI Psychosis.' Everyone else is next.
Anthropic’s Mythos, Gen Z’s backlash, and Meta’s token binge all point to the same shift: developers are feeling AI first, but not for long.
