Once again, this is "AGI" in it's most direct and absolute version with zero fluff.
I unfortunately predicted more layoffs will occur back in 2025 [0] and I see only but acceleration on this.

It's AGI if it works. Didn't Salesforce lay off support people to replace them with AI but then the AI didn't work?
