That wasn't necessarily caused by AI, in fact quite a lot of the layoffs came well before AI was useful. Most of the layoffs happened because companies over-hired during covid, and a lot of other economic issues causing people to spend less money, which causes top-heavy companies to lay off employees they hired when people had more money to spend.

- leptons 18d agoYour comment is a little overdramatic and lacks and grounding in reality. Lots of companies overhired, including mine, and we also had layoffs that were not a result of AI, it pre-dated anyone using AI at our company. But whatever, this pointless internet interaction is over.
- daishi55 17d agoI think the idea that most tech layoffs since 2021 are due to Covid overhiring is lacking a grounding in reality and really any evidence at all.

There's quite a lot of evidence out there. Just because you're unwilling to accept it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I've provided strong evidence in the link above, anf=d there is a lot more out there if you actually wanted to look it up. It's your turn to provide evidence to support your claim. But I fully expect you to double down and not provide anything meaningful at all. You're only here to troll so I'm not continuing this pointless internet interaction.
