Hi,
most of the companies have now given AI tools to their employees, these include claude code, cursor and github copilot. This is supposed to be the testing period to see how will things turn out by using AI.
But now its almost a year, and employers will want to see the return from their investment in AI tools.
most devs have still not adopted cloud coding agents for one reason or the other. Layoff number is normal in non-VC funded companies, since they have no pressure to show AI working for employees.
But this has to converge somewhere, are returns from AI tools enough to justify the headcount reduction except forcefully showing it to investors?
