Meh, i think a lot of companies just wanted an excuse to do lay-offs without the bad press, and AI was convinent.

“AI will steal your job” never made sense. If your company is doing bad, sure maybe you fire people after automating their job. But we’re in a growth oriented economic system. If the company is doing good, and AI increases productivity, you actually will hire more people because every person is that much more of a return on investment
