#chegg — Public Fediverse posts

After 18 years #edu tech and online #tutor service #Chegg, that started out simply renting #textbooks has now had to lay off nearly half its staff and bounced its CEO after the #ArtificialIntelligence revolution began winnowing away subscribers and hundreds of millions of dollars in Israeli based corp's value.

"Chegg lost 99% of its
value—over $14.5B—
after Al tools like
#ChatGPT undercut its
$14.95/month model,
forcing layoffs of 388
employees (45% of staff)"
