Video from Nate Jones. This is a great analysis on the story behind the story. But the big AI players, you're going to see more of these decisions.

Very interesting video by Damon Cassidy. It not only discusses the challenges facing Gen Xers, but also how same struggles are impacting Gen Z and Millenials. And that, perhaps, we should work TOGETHER to fight the shift in the worker landscape.

Stumbled across this video and it does an excellent job explaining - why companies are shedding employees even though AI isn't ready to take over those roles - the value of learning, the growing need to know AI tech (which is why you're in this community) - it's not about roles, but skills (which Gen Xers have in abundance) that will be the most valuable during this change - companies are prepping for having agile orgs that can react to business models changing due to AI - training AI to do your job now may be irrelevant if the outcome of biz shifts due to AI changes the way processes work - and more, check it out!
