Amazon has reportedly cut hundreds of jobs in its Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud division. Those cuts happened Thursday (July 17), Reuters reported, citing two sources, and come one month to the day after CEO Andy Jassy warned that adoption of generative artificial intelligence (AI) would lead to a workforce reduction.
Amazon's greenhouse gas emissions rose by 6% last year, due mostly to pollution generated by the company's delivery fleet and increased data center construction.
Amazon joined a growing list of firms, including Microsoft, Meta, and CrowdStrike in announcing layoffs this year.
