This move also affected various initiatives, resulting in the cancellation of at least three Xbox games, job cuts across various studios, and even the shuttering of one game studio, The Initiative. In the wake of this dark day in the the tech industry, a tone-deaf Microsoft executive urged laid off workers to turn to AI tools for emotional support.
↫ Usama Jawad at Neowin These corporations are raking in massive amounts of profit, they’re doing better than ever, the cup of money runneth over, and yet, they keep laying off thousands and thousands of people almost every few months.

Fuck this guy.
