Couldn't we shrink the workforce in half but just banning women from working like things were barely 100 years ago?
Without women working to earn an income, they would be forced to be taken care of by the fathers or husbands. This would result in reduced consumption of resources; however, arguably, a lot of people's quality of life would improve.
It's not just about robots. It's about an indebted population pushing back on newer advancing technology profiting future gains. How do you force it. Think. And so to cause a successful run off precipating implementation the desired standardisation, it requires an abrupt method. Hence it starts to implode and always has done historically. Today I don't even think the AI causing it cares.
But there are far more aspects to it. What is that complete agenda. It seemingly also wants to reinvent the energy grid, and with it a host of products and services and distribution becoming affected. Where as a direct result will crunch the global population numbers. They just need to add some bellows.
