AI is an excuse to cover for the fact that these companies recognize the country is in deep recession due to Trumps tariff/ trade policies. AI is having nothing to do with any of this. Its 100% companies recognizing the fact that Trump took the economy from "ok, not great" to "stalling" to "in a tail spin" to "eject eject eject" in 8 months.

They are both problems, and ignoring AI is very foolish. It's going to need to be regulated, but Trump has been doing the opposite.
