“The head of the International Monetary Fund ( #IMF) recently predicted that 60% of #jobs in advanced #economies will be #eliminated or transformed by artificial intelligence, “like a tsunami hitting the #LabourMarket”.

Professional business services that support the #tech industry have also been negatively affected by the #layoffs. The *pressure to grind* in the tech world could be an early signal – a harbinger for what many other industries will feel soon.”
