AI Automation Could Drive BT Job Cuts, CEO Warns

BT Group CEO Allison Kirkby predicts that artificial intelligence advancements could lead to job reductions within the company. She cites the potential for AI to optimize operations and potentially decrease workforce needs as a reason for this possible shift. While BT has already announced plans to cut 40,000 jobs by year-end, with a broader cost reduction strategy expected, Kirkby suggests there might be room for further downsizing.
