What happened
Wix, one of the biggest website-building platforms in the world, just cut roughly one in five of its employees. The company pointed directly at AI's 'fast evolution' as a key reason. These aren't factory jobs — these are tech and creative roles that people assumed were safe.
Why it matters
The context behind the story.
This is one of the clearest signals yet that AI isn't just threatening manual or repetitive work. Companies are now confident enough in AI tools to replace significant portions of their own workforce. If a tech company is cutting 20% of tech workers because of AI, it raises a hard question: which jobs are actually safe?
Takeaway
The layoffs are no longer just a warning. They're happening right now, across industries most people thought were protected.
