Exactly the post you'd expect at this stage in the technology adoption and hype cycle. People got over hyped not understanding how technology and technology adaption works. Then they get a bunch of like 6-12 month lagging indicators further convincing them of the worse. Right when they become most certain the technology is useless is precisely when the people that have adopted it and truly understand it leave them in the dust. There's gotta be a name for it?
That wasn't necessarily caused by AI, in fact quite a lot of the layoffs came well before AI was useful. Most of the layoffs happened because companies over-hired during covid, and a lot of other economic issues causing people to spend less money, which causes top-heavy companies to lay off employees they hired when people had more money to spend.
Your comment is a little overdramatic and lacks and grounding in reality. Lots of companies overhired, including mine, and we also had layoffs that were not a result of AI, it pre-dated anyone using AI at our company.
But whatever, this pointless internet interaction is over.
There's quite a lot of evidence out there. Just because you're unwilling to accept it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
I've provided strong evidence in the link above, anf=d there is a lot more out there if you actually wanted to look it up. It's your turn to provide evidence to support your claim. But I fully expect you to double down and not provide anything meaningful at all.
You're only here to troll so I'm not continuing this pointless internet interaction.

Certainly this is the impression true believers have had for at least a year. Nobody seems to have been left in the dust yet though. How odd.
Sure they have. Massive layoffs throughout the industry.

The robot overlords will put the last free man in a pod in 2080 and you guys will still be calling it Covid hiring correction huh

I think the idea that most tech layoffs since 2021 are due to Covid overhiring is lacking a grounding in reality and really any evidence at all.

Layoffs were mainly due to overhiring during covid and outsourcing to cheaper countries tho.
Oh you sweet summer child
Brilliant reply.
