It would be nice if you presented some qualitative analysis to go with... any of this. As-is, this is just AI generated text with a preface saying "draw your own conclusions!" and my conclusions are "wow neither AI nor humans are good at writing layoff letters".

Given that thousands of layoffs has shown everyone idea of a human worth too a company.

On the contrary. The more advantage you want to squeeze out of AI, the more people you need. AIs need a bit of hand holding and judicious application to shine. Your competition will assign more people and get more out of their AIs.
