[17:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	" there is no hope or miracle. How can you expect slimy Indians do anything useful.

[17:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	@B5. I have to agree with you. The numbers will meet wall streets revised expectations. (Eg flat to down). It will be enough to buy the execs a little more time. Given where we are in the Z life cycle, even moderate growth in the rest of infrastructure will result in flat revenue at best, but most likely shrinking a little. SW has already been revised to 5% growth, and Consulting will come in at its usual flat to 1% growth. All 
[17:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	in all not a healthy picture. The interesting part will be the RA/PIP numbers which IBM usually doesnt disclose, but are IBMs way of saving their way to prosperity. Earlier posts have said the PIP number was 15% of the employee population with a 2/3rds failure rate. If true, that says IBM is trying to extract 1.5 billion in costs to drop to the bottom line as profit. You can only run that play so many times before it exhausts
[17:23]	schestowitz[TR2]	 itself. Wall Street caught onto that play in 2nd q and punished IBM badly. Lets hope history doesnt repeat itself for 3rd q.

[21:30]	schestowitz[TR2]	No worries about more layoffs. Copilot can handle creation of the Windows updates as well as all new software across the company. This has been admirably demonstrated.
[21:30]	schestowitz[TR2]	(Understand that, above, the term Copilot should be read as a marketing term that encompasses independent agency, as in Agentic AI, and also to include any other new direction toward which the industry performs a future pivot.)
