Are we facing technology?
An Oklahoma technology expert predicted that artificial intelligence will become so ubiquitous on the planet as Earth – with an estimated current population of about 8 billion – there will be only 100 million people left until 2300.
“It will be devastating for world society and society,” told Subhash Kak, who teaches computer science at Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, Oklahoma, for The Sun. “I think people really have no data.”
However, the author “The Age of Artificial Intelligence” does not think that this Dystopian future will occur through the nuclear war or other “terminator” scenarios, but rather by replacing our work.
“Computers or robots will never be aware, but they will literally do everything we do because most of what we do in our lives can be replaced,” Kak said.
Currently, techns are afraid that he is making humanity outdated in every sector, from law to academies and even romance.
As a result, they suggest, the level of births will be plunged as people will hesitate to have children who are destined to be unemployed, especially given the excessive costs of raising children.
Without people who make babies, the global population will suffer an apocalyptic stroke, theorized kak.
“There are demographers suggesting that as a result, the world population will collapse, and this can descend up to only 100 million people across the planet Earth at 2300 or 2380,” he warned of the shocking fall.
With only that many people left on the planet – which Kak pointed out was a bit about the United Kingdom population – large metropolises like London and New York will quickly turn into ghost cities, according to the professor.
“I have all the data in the book. This is not just my personal opinion,” said the computer scientist, who claims that this contraction population is happening in front of our eyes.
“People have stopped having babies. Europe, China, Japan and the fastest decline of the population are now developing in Korea,” Kak said. “Now, I’m not saying that these trends will continue, but it is very difficult to return them because many people have children for a variety of reasons.”
He added, “One is, of course, social. In the back of your mind, you have a sense of what the future will be.”
Kak called on the warnings of Elon Musk of Spacex, who has been quite vocal about the decline in birth levels and the decline of the population and used it as a rationale for the colonization of Mars.
“That’s why Musk is saying that people have to go into space, maybe build a colony elsewhere, so if such a tragedy strikes the ground, then it can be explored,” Kak said.
And while he is not sure if humanity will disappear, he said “what is absolutely certain is that there is a collapse of the population that occurs immediately before our eyes.”
