Andy Jassycurrent CEO of Amazon that happened to its founder, Jeff Bezos, He has sent a memorandum to his employeesfocused on generative artificial intelligence. If you have to summarize it in five words without using chatgpt, it comes to say that «the AI is already here, and we are going to start throwing people.»
Large companies are beginning to raise their employees that The AI will take their jobs. It doesn’t matter that for 30 years, human workers have been a key piece to turn these technological ones into the multimillionaire giants who are now.
Last April, the Shopify CEO announced its new policy of reduce hiring to use more AIwhile the CEO of Duolingo will replace employees with AI, in what he called, «first the AI».
Amazon announces layoffs for AI
In case there were doubts, in the message to the employees, which has made public, Andy Jassy makes it clear that The AI already dominates everything on Amazon:
«Today, in virtually every corner of the company, we use the generative AI to improve and facilitate the lives of customers. What began as a deep conviction that IA would reinvent all customer experiences and make possible totally new experiences with which we had only dreamed, is quickly becoming a reality.»
He also explains How Amazon uses the artificial intelligence In their processes: «We use the generative AI in our internal operations. In our distribution network, to improve the placement of the inventory, the provision of the demand and the efficiency of our robots, all of which has improved the cost of service and the delivery speed.
And he continues: «We have rebuilt our customer service chatbot with generative, providing an even better experience than we had before. In addition, we are creating pages of details of smarter and more attractive products.»
The Amazon CEO also believes that los AI agents They will change everything: «AI agents will change our way of working and living. There will be billions of these agents in all companies and in all imaginable fields.»
«There will also be agents who, routinely, do things out of us, from going shopping, going through everyday tasks. Many of these agents have not yet been created, but let’s not be wrong: they will arrive, and they will do it quickly.»
But of course, If AI does the job … humans do not do it: «As we display more generative and agents, the way of doing our job will change. We will need fewer people doing some of the tasks that are done today, and more people doing other types of tasks.»
So the layoffs are inevitable: «In the next few years we hope that our total corporate template will be reduced as we increase efficiency thanks to the general use of AI throughout the company.»
Memorandum ends with A advice to its employees, which we must apply all: «Feeling curious about AI, find out, attend workshops and training courses, use and experience with the ever you can.»
Amazon already tells employees: AI will reduce the template. The same will happen in all companies. We will see how far the rope can tighten …
