Microsoft cuts 7000 employees amid AI technology implementation

Microsoft has announced the dismissal of 3% of its employees worldwide. Which amounts to about 7000 people. This is the most significant staff reduction for the company in the past few years.

With an average annual salary of $200,000, the savings for the company could amount to around $1.5 billion per year. However, the company describes what is happening as part of “organizational changes necessary to better position the company for success in a dynamic market.” Microsoft representatives note that the company is working to reduce management levels and adjust its structure in the context of ongoing platform changes. But behind these cautious formulations, a more fundamental process can be traced. Transformation of work processes under the influence of artificial intelligence systems.

Industry analysts link this reduction to the active implementation of artificial intelligence technologies in the company’s work processes. Microsoft is actively investing in the development of artificial intelligence, including its Microsoft Copilot platform and partnership with OpenAI. These tools automate many tasks that previously required human involvement.

It turns out that the current cuts at Microsoft signal the beginning of a qualitatively new stage in the implementation of artificial intelligence in the corporate environment. When automation affects not only routine operations, but also complex tasks requiring specialized knowledge and skills. Which is only possible with technologies capable of replacing highly qualified specialists.
