Microsoft Layoffs

7000 people

Hopefully several hundred Blizzard Employees were among these.

Video games?

Microsoft develops and publishes video games, and manufactures video game hardware

STOPPP I WILL NEVER GET A JOB IN TECH NOW

AI will not destroy society and cause mass unemploymen-

gets rid of trannies and faggots

this is somehow a bad thing

retard

gained 3% in profits

lmao are you really licking that boot faggot?

Just learn to code, Chud.

7000 more jobs that will be replaced by AI and pajeets working for pennies

Grim

learn a dead skill

kek

NOOOO YOU MUST JOIN MY CRUSADE AGAINST LE EVIL CORPORATION

kys tranny

Go back, luddite troon.

catalog broken for anyone else?

Awesome, please do more.

30% of code is made by A.I. now in Microsoft

Is this part of Phil Spencer's plan?

Yeah, I open Anon Babble and I get Anon Babble

Satya Nadella really wanted add an extra yacht to his daily mass yacht purchases, please understand.

SAARS GOOD NEWS US HARDWORKING HINDUS WILL NOW GET VISAS THANK YOU TRUMP SAAR

he isn’t doing a tech field job that still needs human interaction with other employees or customers

NGMI

Every job except being CEO is replaceable. Just give up now.

tech support used to involve human interaction. Now its all AI.

source?

I don't work there so I don't care lmao

They're outsourcing it to India and then bringing over the best indians to the west to work as technicians and paying them half, you're still getting replaced

Saars must be in panic right now.

It doesn't directly affect me so I don't care hahah

OMG NOOO WHY MICROKEK IS LAYING OFF MOST OF XBOX DEVS AND FUNDING ANOTHER LIVE SERVICE SLOPPP NOOOOOOO

It doesn't directly affect me so I don't care

Yes, cope and seethe troon.

Keep in mind Microsoft's CEO is literally Indian too, this is GOING to happen.

but straight pajeets are fine tho

I'm unaware of any Microsoft effort to unfag itself

Jeets aren't people.

This is wishful thinking and you know it. In reality it's tech workers regardless of mental health status.
Stop looking for reasons to suck corporate dick.

oh no... anyway

ugh

How many are they hiring?

BLOODY BASTARD BILLY GATES DO NOT REDEEM THE LAYOFFS SAAR PLS I BEG U BLOODY BENCHOD BASTARD GATES!!!!!!

AI automates all jobs so humans don't have to work

Noooooo this is bad because people have to work.... because they just do OKAY?!

Fix your capitalist system so people don't have to work to survive, instead of being a Luddite.

Is it Indians? I hope it is.

Only poors just want to "survive." Capitalism allows people to find a market and get rich. Even if everyone lived a life of luxury, it would be cheapened.

I live in south america and all my buddies are learning to code because "it will make us money", how fucked they are now?

Capitalism allows people to find a market and get rich.

...Only if you were born into the right time, place and family, assuring you have a healthy web of connections that were set up for you by your already-successful parents who want their legacy to continue through you taking up the mantle and continuing to make the big bucks, because the current system, as you pointed out, does not support the idea of letting many people live luxuriously, thus they gatekeep as hard as possible to prevent the common man from breaching the barrier into a finer life.

unironic retard

This

anyone who ever got fired is a tranny or a pajeet that's a fact

he thinks this is the people they are firing

not straight white men to please BlackRock

You're not even allowed to create a better system.
You either accept the shit as it is, or is pushed into a failure controlled opposition shit made by a burgeois that pretend to be "for the people".

Actual research on what went right and wrong with capitalism with the purpose of creating a better one is destroyed with marketing and divisive politics.

Guarantee that they are being replaced with jeets and not LLMs.

Black Rock gave up on DEI and decided to buy 1/5 of Panama instead. Seriously, look it up

This, the thing with Tango proved layoffs can be retarded. It wasn't a matter of firing/closing unuccessful devs exactly, it was a matter of needing to fire someone and picking devs that had no games in progress.

bloddy benchuddite...

But they are restarting 3 Mile Island to supply the power for the AI and data center.
youtube.com/watch?v=Yap6BRdVOtA

Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised. LLMs are still too unpredictable for critical backend stuff unless you want things crashing randomly at 2 A.M. Much cheaper to outsource to sweatshop code farms where someone will debug it manually for 1/5 the pay.

Good morning sirs, I am now new job

Microsoft employs 233,333 people? That's more than most cities. I know they're big but goddamn.

I wish that was true but trannies still work here.

SAAR U ARE THE BLOODY UNIRONIC RETARD DO NOT REDEEM

And how many of those who got laid off are pajeets?

LLMs are too unpredictable for any professional use, IMO. The whole thing is snake oil. They are fun toys, but they fuck up even very simple tasks. A Canadian airline tried to use an LLM to replace phone support. The LLM invented a new refund policy, and the courts are requiring the airline to honor it.

Nothing to do with video games
If you saw Amazon lay off 3% you wouldn't immediately think it's over for Rings of Power+Privilege

There's still promise in (of course) ML and robotics. Code monkeying? No.

LLM is a tool. It is just as good as the one using it.

Code was sold off like 20 years ago after world of Warcraft hit its prime
Every games code is based on either counter strike world of Warcraft or Warcraft 3.

That's the thing though: You need someone using it. That's not what companies want (and it's not what they are being sold on). They think that they can just automate everything.

In which sector?

AFAIK, this has nothing to do with video games.

LLMs are too unpredictable for any professional use

Skill issue. How come Google/Microcuck's new lines of code are being 20-30% generated by AI now?

How come it took them almost a year to release a Windows 11 update?

M$ does this shit routinely. They barley hire full time people, just contractors, then releases them just short of them being eligible for full time employment and hires a new set of contractors.

Yeah they missed the point. Still, better workers productivity = less worker needed. At least until everyone on the same equal ground then the cycle continue. I was skeptical but lately LLMs are getting scarily good.

The LLM invented a new refund policy, and the courts are requiring the airline to honor it.

Lol, get fucked!

how many of them are women, niggers, trannies or indians

AI IS LE DESTROYING SOCIETY!!!

the society:

*14,000

The funny thing is that the refund policy that the LLM came up with was totally reasonable. LLMs could unironically replace most executives and do a better job. An LLM isn't really capable of replacing people who do actual work though.

So who got hit? Anyone from their gaming division?

Its already happening. It was first thing Nadella did after becoming CEO. It got so bad he had to explain shit to shareholders lmao. Microsoft in last 6 years became third employer for Indians WORLDWIDE. Yes american company is number 3 when it comes to amount of indians hired while there are 1.4 billion of them and only two other biggest companies operating inside india hire more pajeets. Its insane.

Those videos are incredibly damaging to those companies. No talented man would work for a company that allows that.

Actually talented men who can choose their emploment are rare and probably wouldn't waste their time on a social media shithole like clock clock anyway.

3%

All of them are trans by the way

No, it's non-indians.
The objective is to replace everyone in Microsoft with indians and AI.

Just don't look up who's in charge of Halo Studios

same thing at this point

There are always new berries to pick

Yet all the copies suck ass, bring back Warcraft 3.

Shut the fuck up

This is suppose to be a trillion dollar company, huh? What makes people think the studios that dropped duds this year won't get shut down after this announcement?

Getting rid of DIE and communism

If AI takes away all the jobs, then people have no way to get money to continue living. You cannot brute force this. You'd have to change the literal fundamentals of global society across all of humanity where living is a luxurious state instead of the mill grind and it's basically impossible to accomplish for a multitude of reasons.
If it means AI must eat shit so the man can continue to comfortably get his bread because otherwise he'll be told he's replaceable by a robot and then thrown out, that's how the cookie crumbles.

try to login to old hotmail 2 minutes ago

too many requests on a white page

same thing

this

wtf

This, we really need to kick Socialists out of America.

India lost the war

lmao, the hyped retard

LMAO you have literally zero argument
Automation lowers prices. In fact that's the main reason companies do it, so they can take market share from firms will less automation.

think about GDP, prices must go up

It's socialists and keynesians that want prices to go up. It's Libertarians/free market supporters that support deflation and ending central banking.

but people will breed like rats and become very complacent and just consooom

surely this is old and this bint got fired already, there was a deluge of videos of freeloader tech employees in nowork jobs until layoffs at the big firms a couple years ago

SAAAR! DO NOT LAYOFF! WHY DID YOU LAYOFF! SAAAR!

Windows is so undeniably SCREWED and FUCKED

not anymore
now automation increase profits, the capital must accumulate
also who gonna own that AI? at best you will own license for that and that will not be free and probably really limited
money needs to be made
also define real capitalism, do it anon or you are just dumb faggot even worse than retarded tankies

Ok, but how many of them are Indian?

Zero, guaranteed.
Nadella wouldn't do that to his people, they all need opportunity and it's only right based on his cultural beliefs that he gives to his fellow Indians what he's been blessed to receive.

now automation increase profits

yeah by gaining more market share, retard

the capital must accumulate

This is a problem why?

also who gonna own that AI?

A massive amount of people and firms who copy it and implement it into their production processes.

at best you will own license for that

There is no such thing as "intellectual property" in a free market.

also define real capitalism

Individual rights(life, liberty, property)

There is no such thing as "intellectual property" in a free market.

There is, it's what allows gigacorps to monopolize entire industries.

There is

No there isn't. Read Kinsella.
Also 95% of Libertarians are against IP. It's just a government created monopoly like the post office.

it's what allows gigacorps to monopolize entire industries.

yeah no shit, that's the problem.
government intervention, not capitalism

Can AI make a pie from scratch?

It can't "not exist" but also be a real, existent problem at the same time, you fucking idiot.
You said it yourself, the gigacorps determine what is law by way of their sheer global power and America hinging on its ability to conduct global trade because America itself cannot generate anything meaningful resource-wise to save its life.
It might not be capitalism by your terms, but it's what happens when sleazy fucks figure out the best track to maximizing their success, because with that much money coming in, they stop being content with knowing they'll live luxury until death, so now they want that luxury to last indefinitely for their successors, because otherwise all that money in personal savings is up in the air on where it goes after the person dies, and all their scummy work can suddenly be dropped onto one or multiple people, of whom they do not want that money going to because of how spiteful they are to the very idea of their death being meaningful and beneficial to the wrong people.

I got sacked too, no more free gamepass to shill for a dead brand.

It can't "not exist" but also be a real, existent problem at the same time

uh yeah?
I know government intervention exists and is a problem.
What the fuck point are you trying to make? lmao

You said it yourself, the gigacorps determine what is law

Yes, that's totally what I said and you aren't putting words in my mouth lmao

by way of their sheer global power

Imagine being so brainwashed you think the state itself has no agency and it controlled strictly by muh corporations and nothing else.
What a naive 12 year old take.

If it's so easy for daddy gubmint to step in, say "hey, cut that out", make all the gigacorps tuck their tails between their legs, and start restoring order so that the common man doesn't feel like killing himself or living exclusively off of government entitlement because it's the same as getting stuck with a dead end McJob that won't cover living expenses and will STILL fire you on the spot in favor of a minority so they can get bonus points for exclusivity, then why haven't they done so already?

spend hours doing leetcode, studying system design

finally get in

fired

lmao do ppl really think typing on a keyboard is a career

record profits

layoffs

stock buybacks

repeat

Own nothing, etc.

holy schizo rambling run-on sentence
Learn to talk to other humans, you retard.

then why haven't they done so already?

Most politicians don't understand the problem, either that or they think it's a good thing for society. Either that or their bought off by special interest groups(businesses being only one of them).
The biggest problem is democracy actually. People shouldn't be allowed to vote. Free markets should be forced on the people violently if need be.

in favor of a minority

It's always hilarious to hear lardasses telling on themselves like this
How fucking awful are you at unskilled labor that a knuckle-dragging beaner can swoop in and steal your job?

>stock buybacks

Imagine crying about this.
If you own these stocks you're happy as fuck.
t. Anon Babblefag who frequents /smg/

They're just drilling it in your head the truth of existence anyway.
You don't own your soul. You didn't get to decide if you wanted to be made, you didn't get to decide where you were born, you yourself didn't actually have any key influence in your formative years, that was all your location, parents and surrounding adults. You also don't get to decide what happens to your soul after you die.
Our entire existence is on-lease cuckoldry. Simple as.

Think of all the upcoming rope sales better invest in rope stonks asap investerillos

Clearly the answer is communism.
North korea is doing the right thing, we just need more of that.

Not that awful at all, but the thing is the beaner was willing to work for EVEN LESS and not expect a raise for his duration.
Businesses inherently prefer minorities because of this "no complaints, works for less than dirt cheap, no ambition of wanting more" approach.

Trump will MAG-

Its 76d chess

Free market working as intended.
Sink or swim, bud.

It's even funnier the second time

Free market

lmao why are leftists so brainwashed HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

doing what? starving?

Keep sucking that corporate cock, fuckboy, maybe you'll get a good boy tendie!

you losing?

how many brown ppl have you killed? israel is zased

The only one swimming is the CEO at the very top of the corporate ladder. Everyone else is drowning because the standard is "work for so little you unironically get more income from government entitlements."
All living expenses are only getting more expensive because of inflation, but all of the money is going to the top of the ladders, and those that high up are spending the money like a bunch of madmen on everything that correlates to living expenses, further increasing prices due to "demand."
Plots of land, producers and distributors of resources, so on and so forth, all skyrocketing because of eccentric purchases from the billionaire folks or trillionaire gigacorps.

SAARS

leftist retard arguing with a leftist retard

Yep. Moved to Pop_OS myself (and installed xfce because gnome and its derivatives are cancer)

white straight john "the software engineer" smith who lost his job and now can't pay bills and buy food for his three children and a dog is a troon and a fag
got it

Yeah, that's tranny faggot behavior.
He knew good and well from his position that he was replaceable as soon as AI started becoming trendy with shareholders, but instead of downsizing his living conditions so he could make the most time of his savings and plan a reroute to secure new income, he chose to laugh it off with arrogance, and now he and his progeny suffer for it.

@projectliberal

Go back to Resetera

nd those that high up are spending the money like a bunch of madmen

jesus christ leftists are so incredibly braindead
I truly with we lived in a world where they were banned from voting. Holy fuck imagine being this ignorant.
The super rich are SPENDING too much? REALLY retard? They save and invest the vast majority of their money, especially compared to the average person who saves/invests almost nothing.
The personal consumption spending of billionaires is so incredibly tiny that if it didn't exist your life wouldn't be different in any way.

eccentric purchases from the billionaire folks

Yes I'm sure if we never built jeff bezos $500 million yacht and instead gave that money to everyone equally instead, that $1.47 would have really changed your life.

trump is a communist, you leftist retard
also liberalism is based

Probably moving the jobs to India, google did the same a while ago.

worshipping trannies and nogs is based

Go back

that $1.47 would have really changed your life.

Thanks for proving my point even more. The rich are SO assfuckingly rich that it's directly hurting the value of the American Dollar, because their sheer profit annually is demanding the creation of more dollars into circulation, even though that "circulation" is exclusively within the personal savings of the rich, and ONLY serves to hurt the value of the dollar for everyone else that isn't in the hundred billions or trillions.
It's only a matter of tick tock before it gets so obscene that other countries stop acknowledging that net worth as anything genuinely meaningful, and next thing you know 5 trillion dollars is the equivalent of only 5 pounds.

Anon Babble and Anon Babble are now the same thing. You must engage in Anon Babble arguments or you are le trannytroonpajeetniggerfaggot. This place is unsalvagable, full of mentally ill nutcases whose brains were warped by years of propaganda. Get out while you can.

worshipping jeets and kikes is based

Go back

Yeah, go to the rest of the internet, where it's all corporate cocksuckers who will declare you The Devil Incarnate if you don't suck tranny cock, bow to indian overlords, and affirm that you are NOT racist, sexist, ableist, and every other -ist that you never heard of until that very moment, but have apparently existed in "modern sensibilities" culture for decades.

709665073

ok bye

Glad you decided to reveal yourself, tranny. Hopefully, they throw your ass in El Salvador.

tolerating == worshipping

no retard

Thanks for proving my point even more.

I destroyed your "point".

The rich are SO assfuckingly rich that it's directly hurting the value of the American Dollar

lmao how does them spending an extremely tiny drop in the bucket on personal consumption while saving/investing the vast majority of their wealth decrease the value of the dollar?
Please square that circle.

is demanding the creation of more dollars into circulation

It's literally the government(through central banks) who prints this money, retard. They're the ones you should be against, yet you support them and want them to print even more money lmao.

even though that "circulation" is exclusively within the personal savings of the rich

No it isn't.

It's only a matter of tick tock before it gets so obscene that other countries stop acknowledging that net worth as anything genuinely meaningful, and next thing you know 5 trillion dollars is the equivalent of only 5 pounds.

You're a leftist, you support inflation, you think it's a good thing.
You think deflation is bad.
Why are you complaining?

Nah, arrest yourself and go to bed toon.

tranny

lmao get an argument next time
I accept your concession, commie.

It's literally the government(through central banks) who prints this money, retard. They're the ones you should be against, yet you support them and want them to print even more money lmao.

The government are pawns to the gigacorps. Otherwise they would have stepped in, stomped on their balls, and told them to fuck off. But they haven't. They're subservient cucks because the gigacorps are the only reason America hasn't devolved into a third world shithole that's completely and utterly incapable of providing anything to anyone.
It doesn't provide resources, it doesn't provide workers, it doesn't provide culture, it doesn't provide meaningful entertainment (China's mogging Disney now, the paradigm is shifting), it provides NOTHING except the stability and luxury of the American Elites.

Confession denied.

NOOOOO THEY ARE LAYING OF TROONS

good

NOOOOO THEY ARE LAYING OFF STRAIGHT WHITE MEN

then the product will somehow even be shittier, which is good.

win/win

You lost.

The government are pawns to the gigacorps.

lol then why do they support endless retarded policies the masses support like social security, welfare, regulations, tariffs etc?
Imagine thinking in black and white terms like that. You have a 12 year old's understanding of how the government works.

But they haven't.

None of this is relevant.
The cause of these problems is government. It doesn't matter that corporations use the state as a tool to get their way in the same way it doesn't matter that the populace uses the government as a tool to enact social security or to build a sports stadium.

Why can't I get laid off? I've been working here for years and I still don't know how Azure works.
The severance would pay for, like, half a year of free vacation.
Knowing my luck, I'll only get laid off once I'm old and have kids and something to lose.

lol then why do they support endless retarded policies the masses support like social security, welfare, regulations, tariffs etc?

Because otherwise, the average american has zero way to sustain a life because of how fucking expensive everything is. Can't afford home, can't even afford rent, can't afford food, clothing, hygiene, travel, nothing.
So he has to go homeless. And then be scorned by his fellow humans for being homeless, and likely end up getting shanked by a thug nigger looking for an excuse to let out his violent urges that he can easily justify (because no one's going to care if a homeless gets killed).
Without those luxuries, America would effectively be an entire country that only exists for those wealthy few because no one else would be able to make a living in it. And that's not a country, that's just an obscenely large landmass that serves as several private properties for 0.001% of the world's population.

The game.

Because otherwise, the average american has zero way to sustain a life because of how fucking expensive everything is.

Why are you actually answering my rhetorical question and changing the topic? Are you retarded?

Can't afford home, can't even afford rent, can't afford food,

Due to left wing, anti-free market policies, yes.

You faggots literally worship the ground the alphabet retards and minorities walk on.

Where in your post did you say it was a rhetorical question? You can't convey tone through text, fucking retard.

You guys do know that a company laying off single-digit percentages isn't some black swan event right? Firing isn't like some stream of events, they want to do these things in batches all at once.
If you really want to take about huge layoffs, go back to 2023 and then you get double digit scores, which were more the result of the bust coming off of COVID's boom.

AI has had very little effect on the software engineering market.

We don't and actually advocate abolishing those agencies while MIGAtards support them but keep arguing with the strawman in your head.

Where in your post did you say it was a rhetorical question?

Do you not know what a rhetorical question is?

You can't convey tone through text

holy shit lmao
obviously not, but you can read what I was previously talking about
You claimed the state is purely a tool for corporations, I gave a counterexample in the form of a rhetorical question.
Then you actually answered it and changed the topic instead of bothering to counter my point.
RETARD ALERT!

THIS
Why aren't there massive news events when companies like this HIRE 3% more workers?

Because making a spectacle of new hires isn't a good thing for stocks unless it's a 3% increase in diversity hires.
ALL of them need to be women, minorities, trannies and the likes. If even a single cis white male gets in there, the whole thing goes to shit and shareholders start getting uppity.

Do you except them to show confidential information? What actual work are they supposed to show that would be public information?

so if I become CEO of M$ can I just fire people and bring the company to spain? no questions asked?

This. They're not worth the trouble.

struck a nerve you faggots are finally getting removed?

Correction: Microsoft lays off ZERO people (Pajeets aren't human)

Nice

Indians

getting laid off

in a company ran by an Indian who has made it his goal to hire as many Indians as possible since becoming CEO

LOL

What concession, commie tranny?

I just saw a tweet that they laid off a white dude who worked there for 18 years.

x.com/rbuckton/status/1922364558426911039

Based

walk around office

see blue hair

see nose ring

see visible tattoos

immediate firing

M$ is healing.

What nerve

Yup, now instead of snowflakes, it's a legion of jeets.
Still not offering job opportunities to actual Americans who aren't mentally deranged, because the company is ran by an Indian-born jeet!

he thinks AI will only be used against "people on the bad team"

You are genuinely retarded and I say that without an ounce of irony. The people running the show aren't on "your" side you braindead nigger.

xbox division becomes woke

fire everybody and shoves Xbox into Windows

gaming division goes woke

fire everyone at the studios and restructure AAA studios to work like indies and AA studios taking a page from Nintendo

Xbox consoles wants to keep being copy pasted PlayStation

Microsoft kills the console seeing it better as a locked down Windows PC using the Xbox UI as a mask

Microsoft may actually be back in the future.

bernie sanders will become president in 2028 and it's all trump's fault for being a leftist retard

Keep coping

over what? im not american
Congrats on your failing communist nation, retard

im not american

You sure want to be.

And yet you're utterly obsessed with America. Curious!

not really

And yet you're utterly obsessed with America

not everyone is obsessed with your nigger obsessed country fatty
