Oracle layoffs could reach 30,000 as company doubles down on AI

who could have guessed ? They invest billions in a bubble, then replace actual workers with AI tools. When that said bubble is done and over it, expect only a few tech companies to be last standing.

Wages are probably going to start spiraling towards the bottom if AI can replace skilled workers. They already have self driving trucks and humanoid robots that can perform basic tasks like waitering/waitressing. Robots that can fix plumbing will probably come in the next few decades.

I would like to see plumbing robots. It is a weak skill of mine. I am not as convinced as you though because plumbers need to go to some very difficult spots.

You sure about that? I've just downloaded JRE 8u_481 for Linux. Came down the pipes with no issues...

Miq.

Maybe they fixed it. I'm glad you had success.
