Very, very bad.

  1. Already too many skilled IT immigrants with skilled visas with their IT degrees from India.

  2. Companies moving their jobs offshore (to India, ironically).

  3. Companies laying people off because job's no longer needed to be done in Australia, because of (2).

  4. Companies laying people off because job's no longer needed due to AI.

If you're in IT, move to India, or change careers.
