By Manya SainiJuly 31 (Reuters) - Fintech Chime is cutting 10% of its workforce, a spokesperson said on Friday, joining a growing list ‌of companies using AI-driven efficiencies to streamline operations. "AI is changing what's possible but requires new skills," Chime's CEO and co-founder Chris Britt wrote in a memo to employees seen by Reuters. The layoffs will affect nearly 150 employees, a Chime spokesperson told Reuters. Jack Dorsey's payments company Block said in February it would cut more than 4,000 jobs, nearly half its workforce, as part of an overhaul to ​embed AI ​across its operations. "As a public company, we must accelerate growth ‌while continuing to demonstrate operating discipline ​to build an even ​stronger, more profitable business."
