US Top News and Analysis | Hassett says AI isn't costing anybody their job right now — but tech layoffs keep coming
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett told CNBC’s “Squawk Box” that, despite a wave of tech layoffs at companies such as Amazon, Meta, Oracle and Block, there is “no sign in the data” that artificial‑intelligence technology is currently costing anyone their job; he emphasized that the administration is studying AI’s future impact on the workforce and has set up a task force to assess it, while firms cite AI‑driven automation and the move to smaller, highly skilled teams as reasons for recent staffing reductions.

Observer | Mark Zuckerberg Signals Leaner Future While Meta Doubles Down on A.I. Spending by Alexandra Tremayne-Pengelly
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced a forthcoming 10 percent workforce reduction—about 8,000 jobs—while the company redirects spending toward artificial‑intelligence initiatives. In the first‑quarter earnings call he said smaller, faster teams can achieve in a week what once required dozens of months, and that Meta will “streamline our teams” as it pursues artificial general intelligence. Meta raised its 2026 capital‑expenditure outlook to $125‑$145 billion to fund its Meta Superintelligence Labs and aggressive AI‑talent hiring, driving a 35 percent jump in quarterly expenses. Despite beating revenue expectations—$56.3 billion, up 33 percent year over year—shares fell as daily‑active‑user growth missed forecasts. The cuts mirror a broader tech‑industry shift, with companies such as Block, Snap and Microsoft also trimming staff to prioritize AI‑driven efficiencies.

I believe reporting about events as accurately as possible helps move the world in a positive direction. I believe voluntary mutual aid is better than imposed mutual destruction.

WTF kind of "ceasefire" is that?
Like, "we take our war goal, and then both cease firing... although you weren't actually firing so... :-P"?

Lebanon's "Army Command renews its call on citizens to delay their return to the southern villages and towns, in light of a number of violations of the agreement, as a number of Israeli assaults have been recorded, in addition to intermittent shelling affecting a number of villages." and more in a statement in Arabic on their own website, hours after the supposed ceasefire agreement between Lebanon and the war of aggression culprit Israel took effect.
Also reported on by the Guardian:

Trump's so-called Israel vs Lebanon "ceasefire" simply is not a ceasefire, but a legitimization of Israel continuing its war of aggression at any whim, as with the Gaza ceasefire being an arrangement of "ceasefire" wherein Israel fires and the locals cease to exist

'Israel’s defence minister, Israel Katz, said the Israeli military “holds and will continue to hold” all positions it has “cleared and captured” in Lebanon'
https://www.theguardian.com/world/live/2026/apr/17/middle-east-crisis-live-news-israel-lebanon-ceasefire-iran-war-us-latest-updates?CMP=share_btn_url&page=with%3Ablock-69e2134f8f082ddf1273058c#block-69e2134f8f082ddf1273058c
Trump's non-ceasefire "ceasefire" apparently serving the purpose of cementing the military occupation, same as with e.g. the Golan Heights until Israel illegally declared itself to have annexed those partially because it had illegally occupied those for so long.
At this point it seems likely more accurately called a conquest agreement than what people know as a ceasefire, especially since Israel in this agreement is explicitly allowed to keep firing whenever it feels like it, according to what has been made public of the agreement so far, and that Israel actually did not cease firing.
