Microsoft was one of the candidates in this wave of workers’ demobilization, after she left approximately 15,000 employees this year, which constitutes approximately 4 % of the global workforce. CEO Satia Nadella emphasized AI’s transformation of the company, and revealed that artificial intelligence now contributes 20 % to 30 % of the code written in Microsoft. This shift is part of an investment of $ 80 billion in Amnesty International’s infrastructure, which raises discussions on the future role of human engineers.
Industrial analysts, such as Menlo Ventures, notes that workers’ layoffs are not only related to human roles but are about re -customizing capital towards artificial intelligence investments. This feeling is repeated by technical commentator Weiss Roth, who notes, “This is not a matter of Amnesty International that has replaced people until now – it relates to restructuring to finance artificial intelligence initiatives.”
IBM has also made significant discounts, eliminating about 8,000 jobs in human resources and other departments as artificial intelligence tools take routine tasks. At the same time, the company forms an employment for engineers and sales representatives, which indicates an axis towards roles that require creativity and complex decisions. Google and Meta followed her example, while reducing Meta from the workforce by 3,600 employees and roles of Google in Android, Pixel and Chrome teams. Both companies aim to simplify operations and focus on artificial intelligence investments. In addition, PWC and Chegg Inc. joined. To the direction, where the PWC has cut about 1500 jobs and reduces the workforce by 22 % with the acquisition of study tools on behalf of students.
Since artificial intelligence becomes an integral part of commercial processes, technology companies redefine productivity, as some jobs are mainly displaced. While there is a continuous discussion on whether these functions have disappeared forever, leaders like META Mark Zuckerberg and Amazon from Andy Jassy recognize the capabilities of Amnesty International to perform the tasks of humans traditionally. Meanwhile, industry numbers such as Bill Gates and Nafidia Ginsen Huang expect in the future as artificial intelligence will turn job roles in all fields.
