So in the spirit of this website that focus on company layoffs I wanted to run what I done to my fellow loyal, dedicated, hardworking L3Harriss co-workers.

I'll try an be brief an get to the point. After attending multiple sessions of L3Harriss A.I. event week a light bulb instantly went off in my head. I said umm since I have extensive continuous improvement experience why don't I submitt this great cost savings ideal via L3Harris e3 program. So I did just that. What did I do you ask? Well I basically submitted a cost savings project where I projected the company can save easily 25 million or more a year and not skip a beat. Basically I submitted a cost savings project that replaces from the CEO of L3Harris all the way down to lower and middle level mangers. This also include all of H.R. department, EHS, Finance, and especially the absolute most worthless position ever created the dam program management department. I said in a few sentences that after attending the A.I. event and some of my own personal use of A.I. software well this technology is now ready to replace all of the forementioned positions/management/departments! They are all manily indirect charging and absolutely bring no tangible value into design, engineer, manufacturing and or testing of hardware/products. Therefore all of these positions can be replaced with? YOU GUESSED RIGHT A.I. BABY!
Now if you still reading let me explain. Without exposing to much about me I am an experienced degreed engineer with multiple years under my belt. I have set up private machine shops with different types of cnc machines and other supporting processing type equipment to be fully automated where only one experienced person can operate everything remote with very minimal human interaction. No HR, management, program management etc is on site or is even needed. Now yes these are smaller facilities and more dealing with high volume production components but this can apply to other manufacturing scenarios to a certain degree.

So to end my rant the point I am making is us real workers who brings true value to the company should say hey upper management please explain to us what justification can you provide to justify your salary because A.I. can easily do your job for the cost of a software engineer who can create an A.I. agent that can literally replace you. If this was a good ideal or stupid comment below as I value your opinion.
