This is Ian Sherr..
Ian claims Google and others are doing layoffs because we're "seeing the growth of AI a lot more than we expected," so the "tech world" has been "forced to re-think the way they do things". After all, "consumer and business adoption" is growing SO FAST.
So Ian, are you just gaslighting or whitewashing the glutinous tech over highering during COVID-19?
Ian describes himself as a "news AI-startup founder & tech contributor for CBS."
But the best I can tell is he's just making shit up that fits the "AI is going to steal yer jerbs" narrative that he and others like him have been FUD pumping for the last 8+ months.
It's a big tech spin and denialism about a building-crushing recession all in one stupid package.
The logic falls apart; there is no serious adoption of AI at scale. There are lots of ideas and tons of hype. But AI is not revolutionizing 25+-year-old companies in six months. They don't do anything in six-month time frames.
The entire idea that an AI boom is forcing layoffs is silly. So we're just left with layoffs.
The question is, why now? Are they bracing for something?
