Around 20 percent of staff get an ‘In one hour, you might not work here anymore’ email
Cloudflare has revealed it will farewell 1,100 staff, due to its current and future use of AI.
In a blog post that oozes Orwellian “doublespeak,” CEO Matthew Prince and President/COO Michelle Zatlyn used the headline “Building for the future” to share the email they sent to all employees.
That mail opens: “We are writing to let you know directly that we’ve made the decision to reduce Cloudflare’s workforce by more than 1,100 employees globally.”
The post explains, “Cloudflare’s usage of AI has increased by more than 600% in the last three months alone. Employees across the company from engineering to HR to finance to marketing run thousands of AI agent sessions each day to get their work done.”

I know we use Cloudflare but honestly, the majority of the traffic here is bots and robots and Cloudflare rarely cares or stops them. I am glad that Ghan has the tool available if we ever need it but they are not doing such a good job as some might think.
