Layoff rumors are going around my office. It sounds like the higher ups are wanting to cut staff so they can afford to invest more in AI. If this is true, this would be the second time I was laid off in under 18 months. I'm pretty pissed that I spent all of that time and money in school, earning an MBA, just to be one of the first people replaced by a bot. How am I supposed to compete with AI?
