“There once was a chap named Thomas of IBM,
Whose love for AI was exceedingly grim,
He said, "Why hire people,
When we can automate like sheeple,
And replace real jobs on a whim!"

He loved machine learning, oh so much,
And the thought of layoffs gave him such a rush,
He'd say, "Let's make our workforce lean,
With robots so shiny and clean,
Who needs humans when automation is such a crutch!"

But alas poor Thomas, his plans fell apart,
As he realized robots couldn't replace a human's heart,
For despite all their fancy coding,
They lacked empathy and real-world knowing,
And in the end, the layoffs left a bitter tart.”

Hey "Tabasco" and "Jimbo", what are you guys doing? 288K heads, WTF... time to trim massively so you can look good. How are you going to make the FCF numbers?

Get it done, id--ts!!
