A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Indeed CEO Hisayuki "Deko" Idekoba sent a message to employees stating that roughly 1,300 positions will be eliminated from the company.

"AI is changing the world, and we must adapt by ensuring our product delivers truly great experiences for job seekers and employees," Idekoba's email stated. "Delivering on this ambition requires us to move faster, try new things, and fix what's broken."

Idekoba said the layoffs will impact...those within the Research and Development, Global Operations, and People and Sustainability sectors.

CEOs could easily be replaced by AI. That would save companies way more money than cutting 1,300 positions.

LLMbecile hallucinations would actually be an improvement over CEOs. It is at least something that kinda-sorta looks and feels like creativity after all.

How the hell does indeed have 1300 employees? It’s a fucking job board.

1300 is only 6% of their workforce

Wouldn’t be surprised if the rest was 50% useless VPs.

You can't even browses jobs on indeed without an account...

I am sure they don't sell data on who is looking for work 🤡

Wait, what? I do all the time. Do I have some shadow account I don't know about? It does prompt me to download the app, but I can click continue on the web and it moves on.

Worked like that until recently for me now. I get old to create an account after a few page flips and account is asking for a phone number.
