Employees will have to prove why they "cannot get what they want with artificial intelligence" before requesting increased staff and resources, Lütke wrote in a memo to employees, which he made public on X on Monday.
Lütke said there is a "fundamental expectation" that employees will use AI in their daily work.
Technical companies, the publication notes, are pouring money into AI development while continuing to cut jobs.
