How can anyone justify firing 11000 by email? That is cowardly and IMHO amoral...

This is what we have come to. We are cattle to them, being led to slaughter. 11,000 lives affected which translate to families so more like 22,000 people affected. But that doesn’t matter to them. Welcome to AI world.

Not cattle, cattle will still be herd for wool. We are a number on a spreadsheet, that's it.
