Inflection AI: 70 jobs created
Inflection AI grew to 70 employees after raising $1.3 billion in June 2023. In March 2024, Microsoft hired most of its staff in a $650M deal, leaving only about 20 employees at the original company. The company explicitly cited AI and automation as a primary driver of the workforce reduction. This hiring reflects the growing demand for AI talent in Artificial Intelligence, as companies race to build out their machine learning and AI infrastructure teams.
