or did AI?
Hey there! Adam here from Albus, back in your inbox, appreciating and ranting about AI.
with that being said…
• Workforce slashed by 22%
• Headcount dropped from 4,500 to 3,500
• 700 customer service jobs replaced by AI
Klarna's CEO Sebastian Siemiatkowski just said: humans are becoming obsolete.
The company has completely halted hiring, betting everything on artificial intelligence to do jobs once handled by actual people.
One OpenAI-powered assistant is now doing the work of 700 customer service agents. No breaks. No sick days. No complaints.
The CEO's Pitch
Siemiatkowski isn't even trying to sugar-coat it. His message? AI is better, faster, and cheaper. The company will "share productivity gains" with remaining employees by potentially increasing salaries.
Translation: Be grateful you're still employed.
This isn't just a Klarna problem. IBM's CEO Arvind Krishna is eyeing AI to replace 30% of HR roles in the next five years.
The writing is on the wall: adapt or get replaced.
How pissed are you? |

We have Veo 2 vs. Sora before GTA 6.
Veo 2 is flexing with 4K resolution, cinematic vibes, and better physics for smoother human movement.
It’s like Google is trying to outshine the whole industry with longer, more polished videos.
Why people are liking Veo 2 over Sora?
• Veo 2 nails 4K vibes; Sora’s stuck on HD basics.
• Longer vids? Veo 2's got you covered; Sora taps out early.
• Moves look real in Veo 2; Sora sometimes fakes it.
• Veo 2’s controls feel smooth; Sora’s still figuring it out.
• More polish, less effort—Veo 2 keeps it simple.
Open AI vs Google just went 📈📈📈📈📈
PS: this is not a sponsored post…but I won’t mind if someone sponsor us though xD
Final Verdict: Google’s Veo 2 beats OpenAI Sora??
Are you team google or open ai? |
