Comment on Talents leave AI companies: "They are putting profits over sanity and safety"
northernlights@lemmy.today 2 hours agoCEOs have also bought into AI almost to a person, and are using it to replace workers, results be damned. AI can’t do the things they believe it can, but to them, if they can fake satisfying a need with AI for $5, that is preferable to actually satisfying a need with a real employee for $10.
Yep that’s exactly how me and my entire team were laid off. “Automatization”.

I’m sorry. Recently laid off myself and management avoided directly saying AI was the reason, but other statements (C-suite talking about whether AI can do other work months before the layoffs, in front of me) convince me that was the reasoning.

Yeah for us it was “return to office”. Entire team was remote and has been the 9 years I worked there.
