Microsoft $ 500 million is involved in providing artificial intelligence internally days after reducing 9,000 jobs

During a presentation this week, the chief trading official at Microsoft Judson Althoff said that artificial intelligence tools enhance productivity through sales, customer service and software engineering, Bloomberg reports. Althoff indicated that Amnesty International was so beneficial that Microsoft managed to save more than $ 500 million last year at the call center alone.

The internal notes come after a week Microsoft has recorded more than 9,000 workersThe third round of the company’s demobilization this year, which put the total number of affected employees somewhere about 15,000.

For employees who lost their jobs while working in a company that reports impressive costs and registration of one of the most profitable quarters so far, Althoff’s comments may come as deaf.

The situation was already complicated by a I was now deleted LinkedIn Post From Matt Turnbull, which was carried out by Xbox Game Studios, who suggested last week that workers feel “exhausted” from the demobilization of workers from Microsoft – which included Xbox job discounts – may find support through AI tools such as ChatGPT and Copilot to help in managing cognitive pregnancy that comes with job loss.

It is not clear whether thousands of workers who lost their jobs this year have been replaced by AI or whether the demobilization of workers represents the post -size volume. What is clear is that the amendments of the workforce during the record profit period create a difficult dynamic, for some, you should light up.

Microsoft closed the first quarter with earnings of $ 26 billion and $ 70 billion in revenue. The company’s market value has also increased in recent months to about 3.74 trillion dollars, which led to Apple’s displacement and only NVIDIA.

Microsoft indicated that a lot of this profit will flow directly to artificial intelligence. The company said in January it will achieve Invested $ 80 billion in Amnesty International Infrastructure Over 2025, while Microsoft continues to employ talents as well, the company appears to be in a position to participate more active in the competition at the industry level, “Who can pay the top artificial intelligence researchers?” In short, we are likely to see Microsoft spending millions of dollars on the best researchers of artificial intelligence instead of medium managers and other employees.
