Something I’ve noticed in these headlines is a lack of clarity when saying “because of AI” between “retooling the workforce towards an AI strategy” and “AI is doing the work people used to do”.

Reading multiple press releases on the workday layoffs all suggest this is the former and not the latter.

It doesn't matter how it's read, the reality is just ordinary layoffs for all the usual reasons. Spreading some "AI" icing on it may keep investors from getting nervous.
