New survey from research firm Gartner asked 350 global business executives whose companies are pulling in at least $1 billion annually - ARE AI layoffs paying off in the real world - or stated another way are AI layoffs actually resulting in positive business outcomes?

The Results: Organizations that slashed staff to invest in AI have seen the same financial gains as those who held onto their employees. In other words, attempting to replace workers with AI isn’t showing any detectable returns for these companies.

Another study by MIT last year found that AI is failing to generate meaningful revenue growth at the vast majority of companies that embrace it. (this data may be a bit dated at this point)
