This cannot possibly hold up in court. You cant just advertise a product and then be like “*but actually we might be lying about some or all of these things”??? What the fuck are you selling then

Companies have to maximize their revenue by their own bylaws and the law as a result. Yet in doing things like outsourcing manufacturing, or going over to ai, they destroy the economy that they feed off of. Removing workers getting paychecks that are buying their stuff. None can or indeed would not replace workers if they can make a short-term buck, even as doing that will send the economy into a doom spiral and make us all poorer.
Yes, these are all good examples of how these imperatives manifest in law and why they are so unsustainable. Capitalism is not capable of long-term planning because of this, it depends on an immaterial world to exist and therefore does not consider the reality of the world it exists in.
When they say it can do jobs, they aren’t actually claiming that it can, what they’re saying is that they can argue that it can, and that creates its own value. They’ve fired and rehired people, done layoffs, cut wages, cut salary and contract benefits; all of this makes labour cheaper, which validates that value and raises the speculative value.
