CEO that cut over 1000 jobs in AI push on AI killing software jobs

Workday CEO Carl Eschenbach downplayed AI’s threat to software business models, calling fears “overblown” despite recent job cuts. He emphasized AI as a growth driver, not a hindrance, citing increased customer demand for AI tools and Workday’s strong market position. This comes as the company, like others, navigates market pressures and invests heavily in AI capabilities.
