Microsoft announces plans to cut 9,000 jobs, representing 4% of its workforce, as the company shifts towards AI-driven operations. This follows a prior layoff of 6,000 employees in May. CEO Satya Nadella reveals that AI now writes 30% of the company's code, prompting management to integrate AI in performance reviews. As entry-level jobs decline significantly, tech firms are investing billions in AI while simultaneously reducing staff, raising concerns over job security in the sector.
