Another lay-off round

[gugtenterf]

Much like the startups bubble burst, the decrease in covid-19 spread is putting an end to the IT jobs surge when people were hired for doing nothing just to prevent competitors from reach these human assets to, believe or not, put them do nothing as well. The situation is aggravated by the fact that many big announced projects like metaverse have not taken off.

With many professionals available even more knowledge and experience requirements will be demanded in exchange for a lower payment.

This thread is like a time capsule.  Now AI is making IT irrelevant.  Except the plug in computers type.  But robots.

Like the article on graphics cards, it's incredible to realize that we're repeating cycles with the same consequences. They try at all costs to constantly reduce costs, and as with robotics, if they can replace labor with AI, they won't hesitate to do so.

People losing jobs and lives, the upcoming AI wars are just going to remove more jobs, as investors are not putting in money in other sectors as much anymore. And AI sectors only take in top guys and splash millions into stronger computers
