With regards to your point on harms of population collapse. My belief is that changes to population structure that increases the ratio of non-working-to-working people increases the likelihood of permanent recession. I can only think of negative consequences for this outcome. The promise that a reduced labour force will not lead to recession due to compensatory large-scale automation from AGI within the next 20 years is something I do not weight as highly as others.
Yep, makes sense. I don’t have much understanding on either the likelihood of recession in this scenario or consequences of it; but it seems good that not everyone relies on AGI automation for this to be solved :)
