According to a Bloomberg interview with Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino, the company's focus on AI is part of a commitment to innovation and promoting operational efficiency.

“AI-based roles, particularly in filmmaking, bring unique advantages that align with Tether’s vision of innovation and efficiency, from scale to speed and cost being a few examples," Ardoino reportedly told Bloomberg. "AI is a significant focus area for Tether and organizations must adapt to reflect this changing reality in the type of roles they seek to hire for."
