We thank them for their talent, courage, and friendship. <\/p>\n<p>Humanoid Origin has only existed since June of 2021, just over three years.

An <a href=\"https:\/\/publish.obsidian.md\/vg-layoffs\/Archive\/2024\">estimated 14,000 developers<\/a> have lost their jobs in 2024, after over 10,000 the year prior.
