And once we get there, there will be some very tough questions about how to ensure the rate of economic growth that we’ve come to expect to ensure a sustainable quality of life for people.

Perhaps there will be breakthroughs in preventing aging, automation etc. that will allow for sustainable living then? Maybe. It’s an interesting question.

OTOH, we could also simply descend into nuclear war and reset civilization.

Or have more deadly pandemics ravage our cities.

Strange times indeed.
