Humans are still very efficient “machines” for the amount of energy required to fuel them, compared to robots. This is true even if you compare the cost of childhood paid by parents and taxes, compared to the up front capital costs required to design a machine to be out in the world to do x or y that people do.

Moreover, there isn’t enough energy produced by the grid to power replacement machines for the work the average human does. Even if AI replaces your desk job, that is very energy intensive.

So humans have that going for them.

This is why the depopulation agenda doesn’t, or can’t, go to fast.
