    That’s an insane number of potential people leaving - I wouldn’t be suprised to see entire departments gutted.

    60,000 is something like 1/3 of the corporate workforce.

      They should definitely get rid of 60K of them; probably more like 160K. AI can easly replace all of that and more. AI is more than perfect (according to AI), it’s near perfect (according to AI, that’s an upgrade from perfect).

      Also, that’s definitely going to be a winning plan for them. /s

      It is, but I’m guessing they know pretty accurately how many will actually take the deal, like 20k or something. Still an insane number, an entire town leaving.
