Amazon The General Manager of Andy Jassi told hundreds of thousands of his employees on Tuesday that General AI comes to their jobs and that their best bet is to accept technology.
“Those who accept this change, become talked to AI, help us build and improve our AI and will be well-delivered customers, they will be well set up to have a high impact and help us invent the company” Wrote in e-mail in wide enterprises It was also published on Amazon’s corporate blog.
But regardless of how employees in Amazon are obtained through new AI tools, Jassi also remarked that there is no place in the bus to reduce our overall corporate work force because efficiency reveals efficiency to increase efficiently. ”
As I read this note – and recommend reading the whole thing – Some questions quickly received the mind. Are some parts of Amazon’s huge organization highly resistant to new technology and may need public butt (or, hit in the ass), in Jassi’s respect? It seems likely. Is the public note winked at Wink-winked in Wall Street that the hard and company investments will eventually pay off by delivering significant cost reductions? I guess.
Is the note that meant to provide a little great AI cover for imminent or future mass layoffs that may have nothing or just something, I actually eat some corporate tasks? I guess that’s possible, although I’m less likely.
And the parts of the essay in which they carved the different ways in which Amazon is already using Gen AI (Ritutal who publicly performed more than one occasion this year), It is designed to push Amazon in cycles with AI dominating which often contain many other companies not called Amazon? Maybe.
Regardless of the correct goal or incentive, and Amazon does not say that this public memorandum seems to be a leader for the current job or, as it indicated the annual shareholders in April, “avoiding costs and productivity”, and “avoiding costs and productivity”.
I don’t want to give up Jassi’s ability to run on the innovation front. After all, first and first of all, he drove and led Amazon Web Services, of Reason, in the Provider of Behemoth, today it is.
But from the takeover of the Director General from Jeff Bezos 2021. years, Jassi also became the main shrimp of the company and seems comfortable in the role.
Again the year supervised the largest corporate dismissal in the company’s history (joining other major technological companies Target, Alphabetand Seller What are all the sparkles of headphones after excessive employment in the pandemic).
His logistical teams have collected the American stock of storage and stock systems to reduce costs of getting every product to the customer.
And also pushed teams to speed up automation of some warehouse tasks, which could be reluctant to allow the company to do more or at least more with the same.
Some of these moves were needed Bezos to surrender to Jasisi as inflated and sometimes a waste company happened when the transition of executive directors had happened almost four years ago. But this seems to this close observer of the company that Jassi is quite pleasant in the role; Although he enjoys or simply accepts it, I don’t know.
So, if Amazon and Jobs Shakeout turns out that painful retrieval, or something else, it seems that recent history suggests a company, if nothing else, there is a real man for work.
