It'll be amusing to see, as an outsider, everyone who was above-average leave the company, leaving behind those for which AI is a crutch. The large-scale regression to the mean has definitely started.
I interviewed for a role at Meta N months go, did not make it, and then two of the interviewers reached out to me on LinkedIn for referrals the next week.
It's amusing to see Meta and Google throw away their massive competence advantage over competitors for some paperclip maximization. Apple, Nvidia and similar companies are just snapping most of these people up. The rest are starting direct competitors.
The grift is most insane right before the crash, I guess.
Also: there is no need to push people to use "AI" in their work - if it is even remotely useful they'll do it on their own. If "AI" is not used, it most likely causes more trouble than it saves time.
When do we get to replace "Janelle Gale, Meta's head of people" with an LLM? All it has to do is say "more AI" and "moar AI" and "you're fired for not AI-ing hard enough"

I think there may be pushing needed, but the utility isn't obvious enough in enough places to be worth pushing. And I say this as an AI user.
