British bank Barclays announced it will cut around 5,000 jobs, about 5% of its global workforce, by the end of 2026. The job cuts are driven by the bank's increasing use of artificial intelligence to handle back-office tasks more efficiently. Barclays has already cut 1,000 jobs and plans to cut another 4,000, mainly in the UK. This move reflects a broader trend of financial institutions leveraging AI to reduce costs and improve operations.
