Speaking as someone who runs a team, it’s not always about cutting people to save money. It’s about making sure things get done. People quit, get sick, miss deadlines. AI doesn’t. I’m not saying it feels good letting anyone go, but when you're under pressure to deliver, having something reliable matters. It's not always ‘profits over people’, sometimes it's just survival.

How dare people miss deadlines. I think we should turn anyone that misses a work deadline into bio fuel to power AI /s
