Oracle raises planned job cuts amid AI data center cash strain

Oracle Corp. increased the scale of its planned job cuts as the company contends with a cash crunch tied to building large-scale data centers for artificial intelligence work, according to a Bloomberg Technology summary. The summary does not specify the number of roles affected, the timing of the reductions, or the size of the increase.
