This is how humanity’s story ends, with proudly irresponsible capitalists with god complexes harnessing and packaging technologies they don’t even care to understand or consider the consequences of, believing society will pay to repair any “externality” they cause.
Greedy, impulsive monkeys with nukes.
Assuming there won’t be wars or famines worldwide, as things are trending currently the only ones left over will be the ultra religious, like the Amish or Haredi jews. Everyone else is shrinking so fast, there will be at least 90% less babies within the ~3rd generation from today.
Unless something changes, the future is theocracy.
The way it looks, yea, I’m just saying that’s probably the near future, but the far future has many more possibilities.
