Far from me to question anyone on the Internet, but if you fly an Airbus outside of FlightSim, you know that there is an “Emergency Descent” setting that can be activated, in the case of cabin pressure loss.

And it’s been available since 1980.

Boeing required the mod in all of it’s aircraft years ago.

Funny. I can tell you that there is no such thing, and I have thousands of hours on the A320 series aircraft.

All emergency descents are crew initiated. Period. There is no automatic emergency descent, nor has there ever been. I have 10,00 hours in B737, and I can assure you there is no such thing there either. The only automatic feature in a loss of cabin pressure is the PAX O2 masks drop at cabin altitude of 14,000. The autoflight system does absolutely zero in the event of a cabin loss.
