That’s a bit oversimplified. Automation doesn’t fix everything, it may not be a useful option regardless of how much money you just saved. It’s more likely the best employees will move towards the company that pays more, along with their experience and know how, probably producing a better product. On one side you’ll have the best people and on the other side you’ll have ones that may be good but also very upset about the disparity. I would still question if saving on personnel brings the most benefit in most cases. It’s short term benefit, enough for an executive to get the bonus. It may also be long term if everyone is doing it so an employee has no option.
