AI-mad Verizon to continue with cuts after CEO's jobs warning

“#Verizon CEO Dan Schulman has now completed the 13,000 #layoffs he promised last November, but more could lie ahead.”

“It's quite a turnaround from a few years ago, when linking automation, let alone AI, to #JobLosses was as taboo as nudity in the workplace. No, no, managers frowned, new tech will merely liberate workers from drudgery and provide time for more satisfying pursuits. This was obviously before generative AI (GenAI) threatened to liberate content creators from creating content so they could spend more time cleaning laptop screens or making tea – until GenAI turned out to be a duff substitute prone to mendacity.” 🔥🔥🔥
