PHYSIX OBSERVATION
Capital trends indicate a rising premium on 'certainty': funds are shifting from cash-burning complete machines to component makers with orders, and from closed scenarios to embodied intelligence talent from open environments. Crucially, as large model capabilities converge, 'how to judge quality' itself becomes a new business. This marks the AI industry's transition from simply stacking compute and competing on parameters to a second half defined by refined operations and quality control, positioning evaluation infrastructure as the new 'shovel sellers.'
