Electronic Arts is to cut 5% of its workforce, according to a note to staff from CEO Andrew Wilson. That translates to around 670 of the 13,400-strong workforce. @GIbiz's @BrendanSinclair has more details on the company's restructuring plan, which also includes closing offices and sunsetting certain live games. Wilson said in his note that the company is "moving away from development of future licensed IP that we do not believe will be successful in our changing industry."

Welcome to the real world @tinker. No seriously!

Did you expect anything different than what happened to... lets say the Rust Belt industrial workers, or agriculture? All shipped offshore to keep PROFITS FOR THEMSELVES UP, by keeping operating costs, including wages, down.

Did you think you and your 'trade' were special? Really.

Ps. #AI will take all the #techindustry jobs first. 🤣 #KillCapitalism. #EatTheRich and anyone who wants to be like them too, and #TechLayoffs #ProblemSolved 😁

Media that continues to put out pieces like this arguing that while Twitter laid off most of its employees, everything is fine even with *revenue itself being down 40% and the valuation being down 55%*, is why *context is important*. Rocket guy has set billions on fire, and yet this article is fawning over how "tech layoffs, while not all the same, are not that big a deal" with the now, vacuous nod to how AI is going to "take ALL the jobs" in the piece 🙄

Yet the sad irony for tech workers is that as we hurtle headlong into an era defined by rapid advancements in artificial intelligence, the very people responsible for developing and fine-tuning these revolutionary technologies may find themselves on the receiving end of an ironic twist of fate. AI systems are growing ever more sophisticated, capable of taking on tasks that previously required a human touch. From customer-service chatbots to advanced machine-learning algorithms that streamline complex processes, AI is changing the landscape of the tech industry at breakneck speed. In this brave new world, it is not unreasonable to imagine that the very engineers and programmers responsible for birthing these cutting-edge AI systems might one day find themselves replaced by their own creations.

To prevent the spread of Tech Layoffs (LOVID-22), see the following recommendations from the CDC (Capitalism Deterrent Coalition):

• Stay up to date with your labor rights
• Seek treatment if you aren't in a union
• Remind your executives to stay home if they have suspected or confirmed LOVID-22
• Protect your executives by preparing outdoor events

Remember that the best protection against LOVID-19 comes from sharing information and resources through a worker union.
