Companies are blaming artificial intelligence for mass layoffs but research suggests technology is just a convenient excuse for the old cost-cutting game.
Whatever this is, it is a “strategy” that threatens to eliminate the very customers these companies depend on.

The Excuse and The Paradox of AI Mass Layoffs
They’re firing tens of thousands and pointing to AI as the reason, maybe that’s just a convenient excuse. But here’s the problem: if they keep laying off people, who’s going to buy their products?

Let’s be honest, large corporations have gone through regular workforce cuts for decades. The difference now is they can rebrand old-school cost cutting as AI transformation.
If every big player is firing workers, who is supposed to have the stable income to buy their products and subscriptions?

AI chatbots are becoming the new front door to the internet, the layer between you and everything you search, buy, read, or decide.
And whoever controls that layer controls:
what information you see first
which products get recommended
which sources get amplified
how your decisions are shaped
