Microsoft’s 200 laid-off King devs are reportedly being replaced by AI they helped build, while its ‘absolute ‘s***show’ HR department looks away and whistles

    Microsoft needs a big-ass lawsuit handed to them. This is evil. What was their strategy here with buying all these studios and then laying them all off???

    HR isn’t here for the employees, but for the company.

    The c-suite in every company is absolutely salivating at cutting as much as possible to bolster quarterly profits and pad exec bonuses and pay increases. Some companies are going to benefit in the long run where I suspect others are going to collapse in the near future as ai fails to deliver on long-term sustainability. The job market sucks now but I’m thinking in a few years some companies are going to be desperate for engineers.

  5. HR has never, and will never be on the side of the employee. HR is designed to defend the company, not the people

    the problem with these kinds of strategy is that they think AI is omnipotent.

    I don’t see this working on the long run. This is just a short sighted cash grab.

    The next time the AI breaks, people already know this shit will happen again and will just either sabotage it or refuse.

    There’s already quite a few backtracking that’s been happening ever since the AI laying off.

  7. They can laugh all they want, we all know the next head in the chopping blocks are the management and the HRs, since they are worthless
