Many big companies are investing in AI to replace people, not fix problems. Try getting anything internal from a human anymore. It's all internal bots. It's easier to sell when you can say "We can replace 90% of your HR department" vs "It will help you find bugs and develop features faster". I'm a bit cynical, but I see it happening everyday.

This is not NASAs first time dealing with this type of scenario. The crew of Skylab 3 had thruster issues in their Apollo command module. NASA actually redesigned an Apollo capsule to seat 5 in a return to earth. It went so far as the rescue crew starting to seriously train for a launch. In the end they found workarounds for the issue and brought them home normally.

Retired IBM manager here. This has nothing to do with working together. This is another attempt by IBM to get rid of the older workers (again). Most teams are scattered across the world, and in the US they are all over the place. It's just another "Resource Action" targeted at older workers disguised as some kind of great idea to be more productive.
