I don’t want to be one of “those guys” but if we ever do progress AI to the point of AGI we will be able to take care of an aging population without infinite population growth.
(Whether or not the oligarchs who control that AGI will decide to help people instead of hoarding that power is a different problem.)
We are already way past the point where we COULD take care of an aging population without population growth. The only reason we can’t do so today is corporate greed.
Since our economy depends on growth of population this is gonna be very interesting.
