Many big tech companies are using the recent layoffs as an excuse to perform layoffs, mostly to reinforce conformity, but also for a temporary boost to the share price.
Musk did the other big tech companies a big favour by kicking it all off with his bonkersness.
As for that graph, Amazon didn't hire 746,000 tech workers. Their tech worker layoff is roughly inline with the ~5% that other companies have been doing - the rest were warehouse/delivery workers.
