body | "Just curious about your thoughts on this. History has shown that every time a new technology comes about, a huge population boom occurs. E.g. when humans discovered cultivation, when the industrial age started etc. A huge surge in human population is observed.
With all these new technologies that you've mentioned, do you think another population boom is likely to occur? I would argue that the difference between history and now is that we are close to the actual limit of Earth's **sustainable** production and that another population boom would be a huge bane.
Another question would be, with everything getting automated, from labor intensive jobs like farming and construction to specialized jobs like lawyers and doctors, where would that put the need for humans? Will we become like the humans in Wall-E, fat and useless? Or will humanity evolve to find another frontier never discovered or realized before?
I like your post! So just wanted to know what your point of view is" |
