Most of the time the companies say the layoffs are because AI is doing people jobs, but the reality is that making things that use AI is just a lot more expensive. And enabling employees to use AI more than the free tier is really expensive too. So, they need to cut cost elsewhere to balance it out.
I was once told by Oracle engineers that it would take 18-24 months to add a drop down with auto complete to their ticketing system.
They don’t have good engineers because Oracle is a law firm pretending to be a tech company.
We call this the IBM business plan.
Engineer? Definitely not “neer” Oracle.
