Facebook or better known as ‘Meta’ has become so diversified in the past few months than it has ever been. The company says that it is not only a social media company and has a lot to offer in terms of AI, ML (machine learning), Augmented and virtual reality, and also the development of metaverse.
Before you jump to any conclusions, you need to understand that metaverse is not a product, and it doesn’t belong to any single entity; Facebook is just enthusiastic about laying the foundation of the metaverse before anyone else and building on the idea.
Anyway, last week Facebook decided to lay off 60 people in the contractual staff working in many states and cities in the US. And the company’s senior audit team also conducted a video call in which many of the contractual staff were interviewed and were told about the mass layoffs the company is planning to do in the upcoming few days.
Instead of handing out the decision to the people who were going to lose their jobs right then and there, Facebook has delayed the whole thing by saying that it is too hard a decision and they will leave it to their AI to decide.
These contractual staff people were hired using the services of Accenture, Austin, Texas, and both Accenture and Facebook are bent on laying off people they think are not strong enough performance-wise to be part of the next big thing that Facebook will be working on.
According to Zuckerberg, extremely tough performance reviews will be conducted to understand which employees should leave Facebook for good and which ones should stay with the company for a few more years.
Use of AI in Terminating Employees
It was also said that these employees would go out of a job from early September, but they will be paid through October. Facebook has given full autonomy to its AI algorithm to study the profile of the prospective employees that are susceptible to lay off and then terminate them randomly. This isn’t the first time AI has been used to do the dirty digging for conglomerates and tech companies, but this isn’t the best way to move forward into a more productive and contained future.
