I want to see what the long term economic cost was after they fired tens of thousands of tech workers hoping to replace us with AI. It feels like workers are always the ones who suffer the most under capitalism.
They'll fire more than that when the AI bubble busts and they stop pushing so hard into that development as it stagnates.
It depends if they fire them and AI can't actually do the job, then it would suck.
If they are fired and the ai can do it, then it's great, it's like having that many new people.
