No, this is independent on AI. AI for big tech is a core product, like a car for BMW. The layoffs are completely unrelated to AI, and related to stock price and interest rates of borrowing money. None of the layoff employee has been substituted by AI. It's pure old school finance

Unrelated news in a single title just to attract readers. Usual sh**y to ride the AI hate bandwagon
