Ask HN: If AI boosts productivity so much, why would a company lay anyone off?

1•ex-aws-dude•2h ago
Say hypothetically the productivity boost from AI is 2x per employee and a company has 10,000 employees.

Wouldn't number of employees be a huge point of leverage?

Why would you do a layoff when your 10,000 employees are now equivalent to 20,000

Aren't you technically in the best possible position for growth?

There isn't enough work to justify 10,000 employees. There are diminishing returns.
ex-aws-dude•2h ago
If there wasn't enough work how would they have been hired in the first place?

There isn't enough work for 10,000 employees using AI.
ex-aws-dude•1h ago
If the company is growing why would the work just suddenly run out?
