Sounds Like Red Hat (IBM) Layoffs in Slop Clothing
11 hours ago under the headline "Memo: Red Hat Global Engineering plans to lean in to AI" (The Register MS has since then changed the title)
"Red Hat did not immediately respond to our request for comment; we'll update this story if they do."
This "exclusive" piece says what we've long said and shown, including as recently as yesterday. Red Hat is a slop company and it is trying to explore a replacement of builders with slop - to the point users where will suffer, not only staff.
Today, the first of April, IBM is already eliminating (reassigning) Red Hat staff.
The above cites "Wright's public blog about "supercharging" AI-assisted development from September last year" and quotes him: "We are transitioning to an Agentic Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC)."
Further down: "As the last effects of the Kool-Aid passed, the pair signed off."
The author concludes: "It will be interesting to see if this "data-driven view" will be flexible enough to reverse the AI push if the performance indicators show no clear benefits. From the evangelistic tone of this memo, we suspect not."
This is an IBM policy. They try to justify staff cuts. █
