BT -CEO warnt, dass größere Jobkürzungen kommen könnten – und es ist alles, was KI schuld ist – BT könnte 3 Milliarden Pfund einsparen, indem bis zu 55.000 Arbeitnehmer geschnitten werden. AI könnte noch mehr Verträge beenden

From the article

BT CEO Allison Kirkby has indicated the increasing adoption of artificial intelligence could lead to even deeper cuts beyond current plans to trim the company’s workforce.

Kirkby confirmed plans, which are hoped to save £3 billion by 2030, to cut 40,000-55,000 jobs by the end of the decade.

In an interview with the [*Financial Times*](https://www.ft.com/content/c8d41424-f2d9-418e-8da2-55823f1c22ca), Kirkby stated: „Depending on what we learn from AI… there may be an opportunity for BT to be even smaller by the end of the decade.“

Kirby earns £1.1M a year, so replacing her would be a very quick way to save money.
