We're simultaneously the horse and the rider. We're centaurs, lol. It would be like if centaurs invented cars. They could still run for fun or for exercise, but at some point they have to accept the car is better at certain things.

A reduction in economic opportunity will naturally be met with declining birthrates which we're already seeing. People who aren't thriving don't want to have children. I don't expect that to change, I expect it to accelerate as automation reduces opportunity further and further.
