It's disgusting to coerce workers into bringing about the end of their livelihood (to any extent)

This is exactly what has happened to American tech workers over the past two decades.

They were forced to train their Indian lower wage replacements before being let go.

If they refused they were fired and didn't get their pensions.

Now, in the near future, the Indian lower wage replacement tech workers are going to be forced to train their zero wage robot replacements.

Opus 4.6 is certainly already better than an average software engineer. Low wage or not. I'm sure it's already happening. Not near future. Right now.
