The Big Lie Behind Tech Layoffs

Описание: Are tech companies really firing thousands of people because of AI, or is it a massive cover-up? Data shows top AI agents can only complete 2.5% of real-world tasks, yet companies like Block, Salesforce, and Amazon are citing AI in massive layoff announcements.

In this video, we dive into the hard data behind the 2026 tech layoffs. We expose "AI Washing"—how CEOs use artificial intelligence as a scapegoat to cover up the ZIRP (Zero Interest Rate Policy) overhiring crisis and boost their stock prices. More importantly, we look at what this means for the job market, why companies are quietly rehiring, and the real hidden threat: the disappearing on-ramp for junior software engineers and Gen Z tech workers.

If you are a tech worker, a junior developer looking for a job, or an aspiring solopreneur, you need to hear the real story behind the headlines.
