- Over 90 000 employees have been laid off from the global technology industry in 2025 so far.
- Over 73 percent of all layoffs are taking place in American companies as they embrace AI-powered efficiency.
- Intel will likely be the biggest firer this year, with an expected over 40 000 positions being cut by the end of the year.
It’s probably both: companies need to save money, so they lay off workforce. They can lay off even more due to increased efficiency from AI.
