The techs jobs are being outsourced to the third world. Mostly India.
You will news about layoffs in the tech sector. It's happening in all Western countries, as far as I know. Journalists are saying that AI is replacing programmers.
It's actually third world programmers replacing first world programmers. Mostly in India. I have had a front row seat. Sometimes Indian companies have great AI products/services too.
Most employment is in startups. Most "AI" employment is in startups. It's not because the startups are "more innovative". It's because they mostly don't outsource to India. But some do.
It's not just main street/Fortune 500. MSFT has moved development to India. I confirmed with my Indian friends. Their friends are working on code for MSFT, in India. All those people who were laid off "globally" were replaced by third world labour. Notice how they didn't touch their sales staff? Because the sales staff have to be in the same location as the customers.
There are no Trump tariffs on outsourced labour. As far as I know. Perhaps our industry needs to suffer because it's full of libtards.
Nobody is talking about this. I hope that it does get talked about more. Exposure might save Western tech jobs - maybe.
