Thread regarding Dell Inc. layoffs

Things to keep in mind

Inside info (not an employee)

Working "in" AI won't help you.

The ones on the AI teams are being let go as soon as the CEOs have Agentic running certain jobs.

Only 1 of these layoffs was big enough to get into mainstream news - and there are 1000's - Microsoft's AI director.

If you think taking that "AI bootcamp" or getting that MBA will help your chances, stop, now. There simply will not be a role for you as leadership gets it up and running. You are being used. And giving your $ away. The market is saturated. Everybody is an "AI expert". They only need maybe 1 technician per company because entire teams are not required after rollout.

The revenue and cost saving for tech companies to decrease their debt through Agentic AI is astronomical. It's $$billions.

UBI will exist but it will not be paying for the lifestyle you currently have. Perhaps overdue to many, the essential workers of the pandemic will see their salaries increased, an unfortunate reality now for the many who stayed home, not realizing that was a primer to now.

This is a company’s ultimate goal. Who knows how it will play out. It will be ruinous to people. What i see today is not even close.

Too many fortune tellers. Believe it when I see it. No one know how it will play out. Army recruiting numbers are low.

This is true, unfortunately.

Ironically, AI advancement makes AI-related jobs redundant faster than I think anyone anticipated.

Companies are using AI to streamline their own AI workforce, eliminating AI divisions or team members.

Many AI projects do not generate revenue nor do entire AI teams. Some AI roles become obsolete very quickly as it adapts.

They over-hired during AI hype and realize not many human roles are actually required.
