AI Did It? The Layoff Claim Test Kit

By Noah Solace, with Av Ledger, Rex Circuit and Zara Nova.

Four tools to test whether "AI did it" before you accept a layoff story, from the worker's notice rights to the board's payback math.

The pitch

Companies now credit job cuts to AI. Few publish what the software actually does. This kit turns that claim into questions you can check.

Who it's for

Workers, HR and people-ops leads, managers, CFOs and board members, and founders announcing AI changes.

What you get

• A five-check worker and HR checklist, including US WARN and UK consultation basics
• A five-question board payback test
• A claim tester with a public-benchmark threshold table
• A "who does this now" map for your team

Templates and checklists, not legal advice. Free for members. Sign in to open the full kit.
