Thronefish,
Fill us in why Amazon is laying off 27k
Why don't you? Obviously you're going to blame everything from A1 (h/t Linda McMahon) to Biden to circumstances specific to Amazon alone.

The point is that economic conditions right now are really uncertain, thanks in no small part due to Trump's capricious tariffs. Amazon in general is going to batten down the hatches and see what emerges. They're scaling back on personnel, investment, and R&D until they can get a better sense of which direction they should head.

P.S. - I could also give you my opinion on how AI factors into all of this, but I doubt you'd understand, given how you can't even tell what reality is.
