Jack Dorsey just laid off half of work force. The severance is quite healthy.

If you do your work on a computer you need to have a robust savings and a plan b- because ai is coming for your job with in the next 3 years.
It is doubling its capabilities every 4 months.

Regulation is coming from govts across the globe around AI. Very few organizations implement appropriate controls, governance and security around their AI models and clients of these organizations are not going to sit and wait for their service provider’s AI to be infiltrated and their data be exposed to the public. Bad actors are catching up and it is only a matter of time before a F100 let alone a F1000 experiences a catastrophic event because of AI

If you were an employee of this company you had to be on pins and needles knowing more efficient technology would have you removed.

And yet Wall Street still rewards companies big time for slashing 40% of their jobs.

Block owns several applications and saas functions. Their most visible is CashApp but they also specialize in other procurement/transactional services, such as the technology that makes your credit/debit card work when you put it in the machine.

Seems like all those bragging about work from home, might want to head back to the office. Like in the morning

While AI affects this, these tech companies have been fat and over staffed for a long time
