"},{"text":"In its annual financial regulatory filing, the company has said its global workforce stood at 141,000 full-time employees as of May 31, down from 162,000 a year earlier."},{"text":"“The adoption and deployment of AI technologies across our operations have resulted, and may continue to result, in reductions to our workforce,” the company said in the filing."},{"text":"The workforce reduction resulted in restructuring costs of about $1.8 billion, it added."},{"text":"However, the disclosure comes as Oracle continues to invest heavily in building AI infrastructure and data centres to meet growing demand from customers, including OpenAI."},{"text":"The company has been expanding its AI capabilities amid intensifying competition among major cloud service providers."},{"text":"As of the end of May, Oracle employed about 49,000 workers in the United States and around 92,000 internationally."},{"text":"In addition, the company's headcount has fallen slightly below levels seen before its 2022 acquisition of electronic health records firm Cerner."},{"text":"Moreover, the latest figures shed light on the scale of layoffs that have taken place across Oracle's operations in recent months."},{"text":"Earlier this year, reports indicated that Oracle had begun laying off employees globally, with affected workers receiving early-morning emails informing them that their employment had been terminated."},{"text":"Several employees took to social media platforms to report receiving the notifications, which were said to have started arriving in inboxes at around 6 am (local time in the US)."},{"text":"The latest filing marks one of the clearest indications yet of how AI adoption is beginning to reshape workforce requirements across major technology companies."}]}}},"relatedArticles":{"edges":[{"node":{"uid":"protest-over-tank-bund-idol-immersion","data":{"third_party_url":null,"title":{"text":"Protest Over Tank Bund Idol
