> How it will play out exactly is uncertain. My bet is that financial pressure from broke Millennials to central bank asset bubbles finally running out of steam will converge with new technologies such as ‘automated everything’ to produce the perfect storm, toppling the current paradigm

When complex societies collapse, is it right to say they will rebuild with a simpler system, not a more complex one? To realize the vision of these cities requires strong central planning leadership and money.

I imagine imagine both of those qualities lacking in round 3.

The article is not about society collapse (something the West does not see since the beginning of the Middle Age). It is about urban collapse, something that happens from time to time, mostly when new technology appears.

That later one can go into either a more or a less complex direction. You'll have to dig some better targeted evidence to predict it.
