AI related layoffs are going to be brutal:

Props to the author for collecting those in a single place. My take away:
Businesses over spent on AI resources and that spend did not have the ROI they were promised. Instead of firing the leadership who made the bad investments, they're going to take it out on the employees.
This is likely just the start.
@reyjrar isn't this just the regular corp. culture in action? TBH: I don't read anything like that in there.
Amazon employs a ridiculous number of people and likely that's just a drop in the ocean, and they do this every year. the type of people getting laid off also not disclosed, not that they are obliged to.
Rinse and repeat every year. I'd say a culture type over there, but there is at least one in the land down under, maybe they're just copying what they saw.
