Amazon CEO Andy Jassy delivered a clear message in his recent conversation with CNBC’s Jim Cramer: Artificial intelligence will fundamentally reshape Amazon’s workforce, automating routine jobs while creating new opportunities in advanced technology fields.

It appears RTO wasn't effective enough for producing silent layoffs, so threatening AI-driven dismissals is the next approach. Fired with cause for not using AI.
Jas-hole knows that AI can make calculate decisions too like not paying engineers far less than their peers at Meta and NVIDIA and not doing RTO5, RTT, RTH cr-p. What's the incentive of working for less in miserable conditions?
Why cant Andy Jassy be replaced? He makes "calculated" decisions to maximize profits for stakeholders on all sectors of the company... Amazon, AWS, Prime, etc... he listens to his CFO on financials that matter, P/E Ratio/EPS/Net Income, etc..... and makes those "calculated" decisions based on them. I'll write a GenAI prompt to replace this overpaid a--hole who is extremely overpaid answering a few emails a day - these C-suites days are almost over. Andy is extremely overpaid and overrated, this would be a perfect chance for AI to replace him.
There already is AI to replace him. In fact, his own missionaries/mercenaries made it.
@b0 You can go and replace him or come up with the AI to replace him.
Microsoft lays of 15,000 in the last few months. 6,000 in May, 9,000 in July. Amazon?
Which begs the question: is Jassy even needed? (AI can also deliver clear messages to Jim Cramer.)
