Cloudflare CEO's take on automation and layoffs - thoughts?

Just saw the news about Cloudflare's latest cuts, and the CEO's comments about some roles becoming 'obsolete' due to advancements are really sticking with me. It's a tough pill to swallow when you see your contributions potentially being replaced by algorithms or new tech. Was anyone in these roles directly affected? How are you feeling about the justification? From the outside, it feels like a classic case of 'efficiency gains' leading to job losses, which is understandable from a business perspective but brutal for the people impacted. Curious to hear if the company communicated this rationale internally before the cuts, or if it was a surprise. Does anyone have insight into how Cloudflare is planning to redeploy or support the folks who are no longer with the company? Feels like a lot of talk about innovation and progress, but the human cost is always the hardest part to ignore. What are your general thoughts on this trend in tech?
