Microsoft Corp.’s LinkedIn is cutting workers in the tech industry’s latest move to reduce headcount in the AI age.

The professional social network must deliver increased impact to users and operate more profitably, LinkedIn Chief Executive Officer Daniel Shapero told employees in a memo on Wednesday. The reductions will impact a range of job functions, including engineering, product and marketing, he wrote.
