Tech firms ranging from Block to Meta Platforms have announced mass layoffs in the past year, frequently citing AI as allowing them to do more with less people. In a variation on that approach Snowflake says it used layoffs to force software engineers to use AI tools and become more productive.“At the time, my team hated me, but I thought it was a provocative way” to get them to use AI tools, said Snowflake CIO Mike Blandina, speaking during the company’s annual customer conference in San Francisco this wee

Проблема в том, что бизнес обычно ждет понятный результат: изделие, технологию, прототип, экономический эффект, патент, новую линейку продукции.
