Ai-first

Google CEO Sundar Pichai said on Alphabet’s Q1 earnings call: “In the long run, we will evolve in computing from a mobile-first to an AI-first world”.

[…]GSA’s IT division, said at an all-hands meeting last month that the agency is pushing for an “AI-first strategy.”

Shopify is one company emphasizing gen AI in the workplace, but it isn't the only one. Duolingo CEO Luis von Ahn told employees in an all-hands email shared on LinkedIn that the language-learning company is going "AI-first." Hiring decisions (including for contractors) will be decided in part based on whether AI can do that work.

In April Duolingo, the language training app, said that it would go “AI-first”. That, in part, means only adding headcount if a team cannot automate more of its work.
