What was said
"Did you see Jack Dorsey just laid off 4,000 people yesterday from Block, his company? Had 10,000 people. He's like, hey, we're actually more efficient with a flatter, smaller team using the AI tools."
Carroll revealed that Block CEO Jack Dorsey recently cut 40% of his workforce—4,000 of 10,000 employees—stating the company operates more efficiently with AI tools and a smaller team. The disclosure was presented as proof that major tech leaders are already replacing human workers at scale, not in some distant future. Carroll asked where displaced workers will go as similar cuts ripple across industries.
