Meta says it’s replacing jobs with tech in new round of layoffs

Meta told employees in its risk division, which is responsible for ensuring regulatory and policy compliance, that some of their roles will be replaced by tech, Business Insider reports.

“By moving from bespoke, manual reviews to a more consistent and automated process, we’ve been able to deliver more accurate and reliable compliance outcomes across Meta,” Chief Compliance and Privacy Officer Michel Protti told the workers in an internal memo. “As a result, we don’t need as many roles in some areas as we once did.”
