Software Development Job Postings highest in two years, how does this make sense with all the layoffs?

Came across this today: [Software Development Job Postings on Indeed in the United States](https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/IHLIDXUSTPSOFTDEVE) And it shows that the last time it was this high was almost exactly 2 years ago. I care a lot more about actual hard stats than all the anecdotal stories that people like to share on this subreddit but I have still seen a lot of news about layoffs at big companies. Does this indicate that more start ups or mid sized companies are hiring more again? EDIT: Hopefully someone more experienced than me can answer this but looking at [Banking and Finance Job Postings on Indeed in the United States](https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/IHLIDXUSTPBAFI) it has almost the exact same shape (software has a steeper rise and steeper fall however) as the Software job postings. I didn't think other industries were being hit by AI as much or as quickly as software, so why do they present almost the same shape? Is it unrelated to AI?
