Microsoft previously said several of its divisions would be affected without specifying which ones but reports suggest that its Xbox video gaming unit will be hit.<\/p>\n
Microsoft has set out plans to invest heavily in artificial intelligence (AI), and is spending $80bn (\u00a368.6bn) in huge data centres to train AI models.<\/p>\n
Mr Turnbull acknowledged the difficulty of job cuts in his post and said “if you’re navigating a layoff or even quietly preparing for one, you’re not alone and you don’t have to go it alone”.<\/p>\n
He wrote that he was aware AI tools can cause “strong feelings in people” but wanted to try and offer the “best advice” under the circumstances.<\/p>\n
The Xbox producer said he’d been “experimenting with ways to use LLM Al tools” and suggested some prompts to enter into AI software.<\/p>\n
These included career planning prompts, resume and LinkedIn help, and questions to ask for advice on emotional clarity and confidence.<\/p>\n
“If this helps, feel free to share with others in your network,” he wrote.<\/p>\n
The Microsoft cuts would equate to 4% of Microsoft’s 228,000-strong global workforce.<\/p>\n
Some video game projects have reportedly been affected by the cuts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Microsoft previously said several of its divisions would be affected without specifying which ones but reports suggest that…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":246896,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3163],"tags":[323,1942,53,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-246895","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-artificial-intelligence","8":"tag-ai","9":"tag-artificial-intelligence","10":"tag-technology","11":"tag-uk","12":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114815364231798738","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/246895","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=246895"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/246895\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/246896"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=246895"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=246895"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=246895"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
