Artificial Intelligence Radar
Trends, signals and market movements — organized with crossed public data.
What this radar covers
VAIA tracks artificial intelligence by crossing six public data sources: scientific preprints (arXiv), job postings, GitHub repositories, package metrics, technical community discussions (Hacker News) and sector news. No single source is enough — the crossover reveals real trends.
We do not make predictions. We identify divergences, tensions and emerging signals before they become consensus — with visible sourcing for each claim.
Recent signals monitored by VAIA
VAIA data — editorial signals with ≥3 crossed public sources. Periodically updated.
Why this matters
Research ≠ labor market
The volume of computer vision papers does not translate into jobs. Investing in specialization in this area requires understanding the asymmetry between scientific production and real market demand.
Hype ≠ hiring
AI dominates 25% of Hacker News discussions, but real engagement is below average. VAIA crosses narrative with hiring to distinguish hype from real adoption.
Brazil as a silent talent hub
VAIA identified Brazil as a growing AI talent hub — with global companies hiring locally without public announcements. Signal with score 95/100 and 90% confidence.
What to track in AI now
- →Speed of model exit from lab to market — the gap fell 50% and continues compressing.
- →Capital concentration: Defense-Tech received $5B (Anduril) while civil AI projects compete for funding.
- →Divergence between HN and TechCrunch: technical utility vs capital narrative — two different conversations about AI.
- →Open source tools on GitHub: which AI repositories accumulate stars without contributor growth — passive adoption signal.
- →Model efficiency research: papers on compression and cheap inference grow faster than foundation model papers.
