Thread regarding Cisco Systems Inc. layoffs

Anybody ready to be Illuminated?

Heard Cisco is working on an AI bot for Lumi to deliver the next round of LRs. If you get a Webex invite from the light blue pill-shaped Lumi don't accept! Savings from this LR will pay for Lumi to get the upgrade - he's being trained on HR policies and procedures for an LR now.

I hear part of the severance package is another Lumi plush toy.

When contacted by Reuters for comment, Cisco's Chief People Officer said, "Believe me when I say LRs are the last thing we want to do. The conversations are difficult for the employees and the leaders....and frankly, there is a lot of lost productivity holding those calls. Lumi, whose pronouns are he/she/it, frees up leaders for other productive work. Lumi has been trained to understand human emotion and react accordingly. During beta tests when an employee started to get upset, Lumi quickly morphed into Mr. Peanut and danced around the screen singing a happy tune until the employee was laughing....it's a win win situation."

Cisco's CFO went on to add, "Look... it is about delivering shareholder value. We are investing in AI so why not use it. When the stock price is falling and I need to dial-down expenses, I just send a note to Lumi and he/she/it takes care of the rest. Lumi is trained to be unbiased and focuses on just total savings.....it's a win win."

How many Cisco elt members are required to replace a lightbulb and illuminate? Five, chucky sitting on the table with the lightbulb on his hand and four others turning the table. You pick the other four.
