404 Media reports that Proton CEO Andy Yen canceled near-companywide re-interviews intended to assess employees’ AI use. The follow-up cites six current employees and meeting audio. Yen acknowledged communication failures while saying AI adoption would continue and that a planned reorganization next month would not cause AI-related job losses. One employee said the interview criteria would become part of performance reviews, and staff responses were mixed. Cancellation is a concrete change from the earlier plan, but does not establish that concerns about security review or management practices have been resolved.
