文章总结

科技巨头甲骨文公司最新年度报告显示,过去一年全球裁员约2.1万人,占员工总数的13%。这家软件与云计算企业正围绕人工智能(AI)重塑业务结构。截至2026年5月31日,其全职员工约14.1万人,较上年同期的16.2万人显著减少。报告指出,AI技术在各业务领域的部署已导致并将持续导致员工规模缩减。此次裁员是科技行业更广泛趋势的一部分,各公司正投入数千亿美元建设数据中心等AI基础设施。亚马逊和Meta等企业近期也因大力投资AI而裁减数千岗位。据就业追踪机构估算,过去一年已有超10万科技从业者被裁。甲骨文表示,裁员已产生约18亿美元(约合13.6亿英镑)的遣散费及其他重组成本,远超上一财年的3.74亿美元。公司承认重组可能造成部分岗位技术人才短缺,进而影响生产效率与收益。甲骨文在声明中强调,随着云服务和AI业务增长,将持续优化资源配置,确保拥有合适人才为全球客户提供优质产品。目前,甲骨文正与OpenAI、Meta等AI巨头竞相建设数据中心,此前有报道称其今年基础设施投资将至少达500亿美元。谷歌、亚马逊和Meta今年计划在AI领域合计投入约6500亿美元,其中亚马逊的AI投资规模最大,预计未来一年达2000亿美元,同时该公司已进行多轮裁员约3万人。
