So the CEO is trying to tell investors that they are saving money by not paying employees. But to me it sounds more like: we are letting our sub-par products continue to enshitify, and any other company using AI to program will be equal competition.
What products do they have that are enshittifying?
Here is the definition: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enshittification
Have you not noticed that the Windows search has become a meme for being really useful in windows seven and useless in newer versions because it started
And that's just one example that's obvious enough to become a meme
BTW: any form of making a Microsoft product worse for profit of Microsoft is enshittification since they have both endusers and sellers of products that only work on windows/in the Microsoft ecosystem locked in with significant costs tied to leaving.
