We should keep a list of companies that have fired employees en masse to replace them with #AI . When the #aibubble bursts, these slop-stricken corpos are going to come begging for human talent once again. Each time they post a "job opportunity" on LinkedIn, someone can post the number of employees they previously fired. #fuckai #aislop

    @ajayiyer@mastodon.social Employees should demand the full interim pay as a condition in order to return to these companies.

    . @ajayiyer@mastodon.social @roknrol@beige.party this should be true regardless of the AI bubble just like restaurants are increasingly accountable to publish calorie counts in menus. Every job req from every company over a certain size should be required to publish their layoff history with each job req. Do you want to accept the existential risk of working for these ass clowns? Given layoffs, I can only imagine that almost everyone who works at a major Tech company either constantly fears for their job, suffers delusions of grandeur, or both. DISCLAIMER: I've worked at two major Tech companies.

    @ajayiyer@mastodon.social Let's start the list! I've got IBM. Reports differ. One source days they fired 16,000 employees but this article says it was 8,000. https://humansareobsolete.com/articles/ibm-8000-hr-workers-replaced-ai-chatbot-november-2025
