I don't really understand what the author is arguing for here. Yes, tech companies (and everyone else) hired a ton of people when money was cheap, and now they are doing lay offs. I suppose the alternative would be employing people for life? Or that it should be costlier to fire people (ie like in Europe)?

Also, if you are using AI to even write such a simple blog post, then perhaps corporations are indeed using it for all kinds of purposes too, and that undoubtedly reflects on their hiring.
