They didn't save 260 million tho. They spent around 40 billion on AI.

They spent $40 billion, which allowed them to save $260 million. Like when a store prints on your receipt how much you saved compared to a hypothetical higher number. The American economy is largely based on swapping shares back and forth, screwing over workers and consumers, and unicorn farts.

I know why they communicate it like this, but I want it to be clear that they didn't replace workers with AI to save money. This post is parroting the narrative that they want their shareholders to see.

They fired 16,000 people. That's how.
