    “Mark Zuckerberg is realizing there’s a limit to ruthless efficiency”.

    Cost cutting is not synonymous with efficiency. It’s sad that a business focused magazine doesn’t see through the bullshit.

    • Losing 70+ billion on the failed VR experiment and laying off workers related to VR has zero to do with efficiency. It’s just stopping losses without having any other positive effects. No efficiency gain here because the whole thing is mothballed.
    • Putting AI bros in decision making positions and demoting highly payed engineers who actually know how the platform works to AI training babysitters: Not very efficient so far because the fuck ups are getting costly quickly.

    There is more, but why should I give a fuck about Meta. Let this dumpster fire burn.
