Okay. It also coincides with the end of the post-pandemic hiring boom and the UK bank rate going from 0.1% to 5.25%. It's kind of funny that reliable data analysis has never been part of the AI hype when you consider that AI is used for data analysis.

In the US I think it’s may be driven more by r&d cost amortization changes since 2023. It’s attributed to AI but I believe tax implications are to blame as well apart from interest rates and the covid hiring.

Hopefully that will be fixed this year, or tech layoffs and outsourcing in the US will pick up pace. Without the R&D write off, each dev in the US is a massive financial black hole vs hiring outside the US.
