For the first time in history, AI just became the #1 cited reason for layoffs in America. 15,341 cuts in March alone. 25% of all layoffs. Tech is up 40% year-over-year. Federal workforce down 355,000 since 2024. But the same week — Anthropic shipped Claude Opus 4.7 and OpenAI shipped GPT 5.4. A sole proprietor can now run a proposal team for $200/month. And $170 billion a year in federal contracts goes unfilled. Dwayne Richardson breaks down the four-step fix.

The Strategy War | Episode 11

Three things happened this week that most small business owners completely missed — and all three will shape the next decade of how business gets done in America.

Anthropic dropped Claude Opus 4.7. OpenAI moved toward a trillion-dollar IPO while quietly pulling back on Stargate. And Iran put a satellite image of a thirty-billion-dollar American data center on video and called it a target.

In this episode, Dwayne breaks down what these three signals mean for solo operators, small business owners, and anyone trying to build in the middle of an AI strategy war — and why the businesses who act in the next 90 days will open a gap that late movers will never close.

In this episode:

• Why Claude 4.7 just closed the gap between a solo operator and a full team
• The real story behind OpenAI's $852B valuation and Stargate pullback
• The first time in history a nation-state targeted commercial data centers — and what it means for your business
• Why sovereign compute is now a national industrial policy issue
• How federal set-aside dollars are flowing right past most small businesses

The Shift Has Started: AI, War, and the New Money Economy

The economy you thought you were in is not the one you're in anymore.

In this episode, Dwayne Richardson breaks down what's actually happening right now — from the latest JOLTS labor data and the ghost job crisis, to Oracle cutting 30,000 people the same morning they reported $6 billion in profit. This isn't a future warning. This happened this morning.

We cover:

• Why 30–40% of job postings are ghost jobs and what real unemployment actually looks like
• How a war economy shifts money from consumers to contractors — and what that means for you
• Jensen Huang, Elon Musk, and the AI infrastructure arms race
• Why Larry Ellison cut tens of thousands of workers to buy GPUs
• The 3 moves winners are making right now: capital, contracts, and AI leverage
• How ContractIQ was built for exactly this moment

This isn't a job market problem. It's a positioning problem.
