8/ No consensus on the hardest part of the AI engineering stack.

Adjacent signal — worth a scan.

02 · Core

The mechanism

Evals win (for the third year), but orchestration / agent logic, inference, and security are all within a few points.

03 · Edge

Why it's leverage

From @barrnanas (emerging). The stack is still hard everywhere.
