Cloudflare’s AI Layoff Strategy & Weed Is Less Cool Than Math

Cloudflare’s CEO explains that the company is using AI to replace certain workers—especially “measuring” roles like middle management, compliance, and operations—because automated tools can now handle those tasks faster and more efficiently. The opinion piece argues that while AI is reshaping the workforce, the company plans to keep investing in core roles like builders and sales teams, which still rely heavily on human creativity and relationships.    A new YouGov survey found that most Americans don’t see marijuana as “cool,” with only about 36% describing it that way—ranking it below things like math, reading, and country music. However, cannabis still scored higher than guns, sports betting, and cryptocurrency, showing it sits in the middle of shifting public perceptions despite growing legalization.  Please Like, Comment and Follow 'Philip Teresi on KMJ' on all platforms: ---     Philip Teresi on KMJ is available on the KMJNOW app, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever else you listen to podcasts.  -- Philip Teresi on KMJ Weekdays 2-6 PM Pacific on News/Talk 580 AM & 105.9 FM KMJ  | Website  | Facebook | Instagram | X | Podcast | Amazon | - Everything KMJ KMJNOW App | Podcasts | Facebook | X | Instagram  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
