## Resource

Asha Sharma, ex-Xbox CEO and recent architect of 3,200 layoffs, is now stepping into a high-stakes government role on the Federal Reserve Board — tasked with studying AI’s impact on jobs. With her background in Microsoft’s CoreAI division, she’s uniquely positioned — but not without controversy. Critics are calling it ironic, even audacious, to appoint someone who oversaw massive job cuts to lead a task force on employment efficiency. Fed Chair frames her as an “external advisor” meant to bring candid, evidence-based insights — but the timing and optics are undeniably provocative. Watch this space to see if her involvement sparks real change or just more headlines. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
