    Thanks for this objective take – anecdotes and substacks are not macro statistics….

    If you believe that no jobs being taken by AI, the you might as well go collect your ‘flat earth society membership card’

      What data are you sourcing?

    Oh ok. That explains why every major company that is investing in AI is simultaneously firing thousands of people. Great reporting! It really captures the reality of today’s workforce.

      Sigh. The same companies who hired 10s of thousands of employees during COVID and got bloated? So much so that you had Gen Z workers on TikTok showing how little they do if anything at all? Those same companies who are spending millions and billions on AI CAPEX & R&D, so they have to cut costs somewhere? Why wouldn’t it normally be their largest cost? Labor. And those same companies simultaneously and coincidentally committing billions in new office buildings, infrastructure, and hiring in India? The India AI Summit just happened a few weeks ago. Go see who was in attendance and how much they promised to invest, train, and hire.

      There’s a joke that AI = Another Indian. In reality, it means Another Indian + AI tools + better translation tools.

      Most of these companies are AI washing.

      Uh, this is incorrect. I’m not going to write an entire essay, but research is key. Look up the Covid workforce numbers vs today and you will see there are more people employed today, but that is mainly due to a younger generation entering the workforce, not because of a Covid hiring increase.

Drone startup Neros has raised $250 million in a round co-led by Sequoia that triples its valuation to $2.5 billion as it expands beyond strike drones into autonomous systems and drone interceptors.

They join Ed Ludlow on “Bloomberg Tech.” (Corrects description of Sequoia’s involvement in Neros funding in headline.)
