  • AI-Driven Job Cuts Hit ASX Tech Firms Amid Rising Unemployment in Australia
    May 22, 2026, 7:41 PM EDT. Australia's unemployment rate rose to 4.5% in April, marking its sharpest monthly increase since early 2020.

WiseTech Global announced plans to cut 2,000 jobs, nearly 30% of its workforce, citing AI altering work processes. Internal communications shifted language from 'AI transformation' to 'global transformation' amid regulatory challenges in China. Across the Pacific, Meta slashed 8,000 jobs despite record revenues, signaling a strategic pivot rather than cost-cutting.
