Yann LeCun could replace Amazon's ENTIRE AGI division with agents. Think about it... Swami has only been doing AI for the past 9 years with a limited academic background in AI. And AI still hasn't delivered on its promises!

Sad to hear about the layoffs in the AGI division. It's always difficult to see talented people impacted, especially in teams working on such ambitious and important problems. Does anyone have a sense of approximately how many people were affected?

While Meta didn't pay Yann LeCun enough to stay, Brown came from AWS, so it was a cheaper hire option :)

It seems lik all of the new A.I. revenue will be led by the on-shore non-AWS employees at all of the System Integrators/GSI's big and (Accenture, Deloitte, Kyndryl, IBM) that will delpy and embed/integrate onsite with the client workforce.

Is what they should do based on the service level these days. Not a single order is correct. No supervision in the warehouses. No quality checks. Record number of returned items for the wrong product. Amazon is going downhill fast.

I want to come into work on Monday mornings in order to put my laptop in work desk or file cabinet, then go back home. I don't want the screen to lock or for Teams to show I'm away. What settings in Control Panel do I change?

What chance do the rest of our jobs stand?

Most definitely not here. They treat us worse than disposable, and that's already rock bottom. Don't fall for the pay, the promises, or the fear tactics. Your odds of being let go soon after moving are way higher than the move ever working out.

Any guesses?

Complicit to the status quo and having a foriegner centric first mindset in hiring practices have caught up to AWS.

Last week I did not go into the office and I worked at home. Does Amazon really know where you are working at? I'm thinking I am going to continue staying at home and work. I made it a habit a long time ago not to talk to any of my coworkers when I... — read more
