No layoffs there.
Amazon knows they can hire Indians at a fraction of the costs of American workers.
Sad but true.

Not surprised few consumers are interested in EV vehicles from GM.
GM lacks the innovation and X factor that consumers want / crave from Tesla.
I thought AI was going to get rid of people.No layoffs there.

Is this like the industrial robot revolution, when they moved the factories to China and now there replacing those people with robots?
RE AI, the way to think about AI is, "did computers replace people"?
Well, sort of but not really. Computers can do in a few seconds what bookkeepers might have taken hours to do decades ago, but people are still needed just in very different ways. Like it or not, the workplace is always evolving. The ones who might fall behind are those who are uncapable or unwilling to acquire the necessary tech skills needed in the AI dominated future. That, or learn a trade that is essentially "AI proof" like plumbing or carpentry. Both of those can pay really well. The sky is NOT falling. Its just evolving, like it always does.

Bookkeepers are mostly gone due to the software that runs on those computers. It's simply better.
Yes, computers replace jobs and people had those jobs. Tech has been doing so since forever and will continue to do so.
It may be fair to say AI is not getting rid of people, but it is replacing jobs.
In a few years, there will not be enough jobs for people.
As your favorite lowly programmer, AI has "augmented" my job; soon it will take it. Oops...
Good thing I'm retired!
I replaced lots of basic factory workers with automation. Thats my full time job in fact - so I guess I am the new job and always have been.
The factory workers probably went to fill boxes for Jeff Bezos or whatever (and are now being replaced by automation or humanoids again).
What are doctors and paralegals going to retrain for when AI replaces them?
Lucky.
Just riding the "Melt Up" of the market. Made enough to buy the new motorcycle toy, and its still rising.
Paralegals & lawyers will be fine. Someone has to work the lawsuits for when AI and automation screws up and people get hurt.
Maybe, but in factories the automated portions are the safest. No people around to get hurt.
Plumbers, electricians, doctors, police, fire, ambulance, EMT, construction, sales, painters, forestry, farming, ranching, almost ANYONE who works outside.
The only thing constant is change. Adopt, adapt and you will be fine,
And when the bazillion $$ robotics do not operate per spec.

Robot firing squad !
I think that goes for every electric vehicle manufacturer
The taxpayer gift is over and so are electric vehicle sales
Tesla has repeatedly cut production throughout this year and has an enormous football field worth of unsold cyber trucks
The EV bloodbath will start and at least GM is primarily gasoline

Automated operations move allot to the PM side - and now the machines need at least two kinds of techs … (mechanical and control side) …
GM stock up 34% this year
Tesla up 18%
Over a 2 year period GM up 152%
Tesla up 128%
I missed these moves but I hate retail anyway
