It’s essentially an automated bullshit generator. A lot of people with bullshit jobs will be out of work.

The nature of capitalism is that it requires consumers to function. Traditionally the way the system works is that business owners employ people who get wages for their work, and then spend their wages purchasing goods and services.

This leads to unemployment and lack of people with disposable income to consume the goods and services that companies produce.
