Krutrim, Bhavish Aggarwal’s AI brainchild, just handed out pink slips to 100+ staff, mostly from its newly hired linguistics team. This is the second layoff round since June. Why? With 80% of AI assistant “Kruti” already trained, they say fewer people are now needed.
-
Mostly affected: the linguistics team who joined recently
-
Reason: “Strategic realignment” and leaner teams
-
Timing: Right after launching AI assistant ‘Kruti’
-
Krutrim is India’s first AI unicorn (💰 $50M raised)
👉 Why this matters: Shows the harsh reality of AI automation—even AI builders are facing cutbacks.
