California-based financial services company Block is reducing its workforce from more than 10,000 workers to just under 6,000 due to increased utilization of artificial intelligence tools at the company, Block co-founder and chairman Jack Dorsey said in a Feb. 26 post on X.

The workforce reduction means “over 4,000 of you are being asked to leave or entering into consultation,” Dorsey, the founder of Twitter, now X, said.
