AI & Jobs Sam Altman and Dario Amodei publicly walked back their AI jobs apocalypse predictions in the same week — and the same week both companies began circulating IPO materials at trillion-dollar valuations.
AI & Jobs CNN says the software engineering interview is broken — banned-AI rules clash with on-the-job AI dependence, and Anthropic admits it had to rewrite its own technical questions.
AI & Jobs OpenAI's Sam Altman told a Sydney conference on May 26 he was 'pretty wrong' about AI eliminating entry-level white-collar work. Anthropic's Dario Amodei walked back his '50% of white-collar jobs' line earlier this month. Both companies are reportedly chasing $1T IPOs.
AI & Jobs Intuit cut ~3,000 jobs (17% of 18,200) on the same day it reported Q3 earnings. CEO Goodarzi told Cramer 「None of it had to do with AI」 — while the internal memo, the Anthropic + OpenAI partnerships, and the Reno + Woodland Hills office closures say otherwise.
AI & Jobs Gartner surveyed 350 executives at $1B+ companies. 80% who piloted AI cut staff. The cut rate is the same for high-ROI and low-ROI groups. The same week, Dario Amodei walks back his 「half of white-collar jobs」 prediction. Both stories landed on May 11.
AI & Jobs Multiple outlets reported between April 29 and May 1 that Anthropic has preemptive offers to raise around $50 billion at a valuation of roughly $850–900 billion. The board meeting that finalizes it is scheduled for May. Annual revenue run rate has gone from ~$9B at end-2025 to roughly $30–40B today — most of the growth from coding-agent products. The chart that won the valuation argument is the same chart that explains why entry-level engineering hiring is collapsing.
AI & Jobs A top-ten New York firm quietly rolled Claude into its discovery workflow. Two weeks later, 47 paralegals learned what 'redeployment' really means. Spoiler: it means LinkedIn.
