  2. “Staff at #WiseTech have been waiting almost three months to be told if they are among the 2,000 people the logistics software company is to cut due to advances in #AI, with #workers criticising the wait as stressful and “ridiculous”.

    The comments come as its founder on Tuesday told #investors an #AIAgent could learn a human’s job in just 15 minutes, according to the #AustralianFinancialReview.

    The Australian Stock Exchange-listed company announced in late February that it would #LayOff almost 30% of its #workforce across 40 countries, with 2,000 of the 7,000 jobs set to go over the next 18 months.

    Some areas would be hit harder than others, with product and development and customer service teams expected to be reduced by up to 50%, the chief #executive, #ZubinAppoo, told an investor briefing in February.

    “The era of manually writing #code as the core act of #engineering is over,” Appoo said.”

  6. “Meta intends ​to conduct a first wave of sweeping layoffs planned for this year on May 20, with more ‌coming later, three sources familiar with the plans told Reuters. The #Facebook and #Instagram owner will #LayOff about 10% of its global #workforce, or close to 8,000 employees, in that initial round, one of the sources said.

    The company is planning further layoffs in the second half of the ​year, the three sources said, although details of those #cuts, including date and size, were not yet settled. ​#Executives may adjust their plans as they observe developments in #ArtificialIntelligence capabilities, the sources added”

  8. Despite me being positive about #ND34, the newest entry for #NancyDrew videogame series, there is a merit in finding how we've got here in the first place and if #HerInteractive is a trustworthy studio.

    Right of the gate, we see the drastic difference in how previous, #ND33 game performed after successful 32 inclusions... It's darn #MID, if you ask me. :thisIsFine: So, it was being developed after the big #layoff in Her, where most positions got bestowed on a new crew. Only that it was going hand-in-hand with new CEO's delusion of a #passion mobile project. Add here a camp of the #fanbase which insists on a regular ND release schedule, #hustle culture, and you have a case of rushed development, #crunch and leaving everyone with a subpar ND game. If anything, I guess old crew was spared nerve cells in expense of new blood being under equally subpar direction - lucky to be fired, unlucky to be hired? Oof.
