Is it even worth mentioning that the whole "AI is the reason for layoffs" line is a charade, or does everyone here know that already?
For anyone who doesn't: the economy is bad in general, but saying citing "AI" as the reason for layoffs lets companies reverse their public perception from "company going through a crunch" to "forward-thinking innovator".
Could it be that Tailwind is just "done"? If they churn it the way that other web frameworks churn, like react-router, they would be subtracting more value than they add.
