It is an estimate with a stated method. It is not a forecast of jobs lost or of savings, and it says nothing about what the company will do.

0 sentences in the filing name AI. Its annual reports for fiscal 2021 to 2026 name it in 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 and 0 sentences, year by year. They are counted and quoted on this page, never judged: a count says how much a filing talks about AI, not what the company does with it.
How is this estimated?
Claude Fable 5.2 read the annual report under the Index's written rubric (version 1) on November 11, 2026: the stated headcount, the share in the U.S. when stated, and the workforce as a blend of industry staffing patterns. The estimates are the site's industry estimates weighted by those shares, from O*NET tasks with estimated lengths and METR's measurements of how long a task AI models can finish.
