Sources claim the layoffs could be announced this week and impact up to 30,000 people.

Oh, and turns out New World, Amazon’s one reasonably-sized success in gaming, is shutting down in 2026, and development is ending imminently.

    Seems like the only way companies can turn “AI” profitable is to do massive lay-offs to cut costs. Not because AI can actually take on those jobs that were cut, but because it’s a “good” excuse.

    Awesome.

    We like in the dumbest cyberpunk version of the future. Predatory capitalism but all the tech is vaporwave and it’s all just dumb dumb finance bros running the show.
