Meta isn't alone: tech companies have cut more than 52,000 jobs just in the first few months of 2026, a sharp jump from last year.
About a quarter of these layoffs are linked to companies doubling down on AI, with giants like Oracle and Amazon making similar moves.
Meanwhile, some Meta employees are worried about new AI tools tracking their work more closely, raising fresh questions about privacy at work.
