    If they're being removed for cause rather than lack of work that's a firing, not a layoff. Why is he lying?

    How does this work? Say he had 100 employees, he lays off 80, now he has 20, he lays off 16, now he has 4, will he lay off 3 and make the last one part time, constantly cutting their hours by 80% and approaching but never getting to zero?

    Thinks he's Elon and can just go do whatever. We'll later hear about this company hiring people back, collapsing, etc.

    In a March 2025 interview with business writer Chad Silverstein, Vaughan made it clear how he views himself: "we stand at a unique moment where AI could either widen inequality dramatically or become the greatest leveling force in economic history. The choice is ours, and I believe business leaders have a profound responsibility to ensure we choose wisely."

    he chose inequality

    This is the AI Psychosis we should be worried about. Not incels falling in love with their PCs.

    Yep. Companies are this crazy. I got eliminated from a job interview because I said I'm meh about AI. In retrospect, I'm glad I didn't get that job. A friend of mine later told me that the company tracks everyone's AI usage and that it's part of their performance review. The more you use AI, the higher you'll be rated. 🤮

    I am going to enjoy this dude's reaction when AI bubble pops. And it is a matter of when and not if.

    Does "again" mean "80% out of 20% of those who left"? I need it for a graph
