Not only are jobs being cut but three top executives are also bidding farewell to Instacart. Chief Operating Officer Asha Sharma Chief Technology Officer Varouj Chitilian and chief architect JJ Zhuang are all leaving the company for personal reasons. Looks like they're taking a cue from Samantha and deciding to focus on their own pleasure.

Instacart's fourth quarter earnings were pretty much on par with what Wall Street expected. They reported a revenue of $803 million almost hitting the estimated mark of $804 million. Not bad but not exactly a Carrie Bradshaw outfit that makes heads turn.

AI and Machine Learning to the Rescue

In their grand plan for the future Instacart has set their sights on incorporating artificial intelligence and machine learning features into their platform. It's like adding a little black dress to an already fashionable wardrobe – a classic move.
