... all of them at this point? ;-)
Be interesting to see the numbers graphed over time.
Funny thing about AI layoffs is the cloud cover it provides to do it. Which I know is not a fresh insight. :-)
In HR speak, if you 'reduce headcount' because you over hired or needed to cut costs, then that's a bad signal to the markets.
If you do it because of AI efficiencies, you are an innovative industry leader and your stock goes up.
Atlassian stock up 2% on the news :-/
This is the best site: https://layoffs.fyi/
We don't really know, if the layoffs are because of AI.
https://www.thelayoff.com/ - This site is a discussion forum, some fake information before the actual layoffs.
