Claude Opus 4.6 is the point of no return for society. We’re going to start seeing a massive uptick in the number of suicides these next few years. This is exactly what the tech bros and billionaires are embracing. They are salivating at the thought of automating all white-collar jobs and robbing people of their chance to have a comfortable life. It is sick and twisted, but they know exactly what they are building. First you lose your job. Then you deplete your emergency savings and lose your house. Except you will not be the only one. Millions of desperate people will be trying to survive at the exact same time. When everyone is forced to sell off their homes and liquidate their stocks just to buy groceries, the market will completely crater. Your assets will be worth pennies. Without a middle class to spend discretionary income, the fallout will be absolute. The restaurants, hotels, and local businesses that rely on that money will be wiped out overnight, leaving hollowed-out ghost towns behind. Then you realize you have no good prospects of pulling yourself and your family out of poverty. People love to say you can just go back to school and get a new job, but that is a fantasy. What bank is going to approve a student loan for someone with absolutely zero income? Even if you somehow find the money, the few trade and college programs tied to the remaining human jobs will be violently cutthroat. And with a massive, desperate population begging for those exact same scraps, corporations will pay rock-bottom starvation wages. Finally you either starve to death or kill yourself because there’s no hope. submitted by /u/Healthy_Cup_7711
