Tech-stinction alert: Will humanity shrink to just 100 million people?
A stark warning comes from Subhash Kak, a professor of computer science at Oklahoma State University, who believes that artificial intelligence (AI) could deal humanity the biggest demographic blow in history. In an interview with the British newspaper The Sun, the academic says that, if current trends continue, the world population, currently around 8 billion, could fall to just 100 million by the end of the 23rd century.
How does Kak explain the apocalyptic scenario?
1. Massive job replacement
According to Kak, AI is rapidly entering every sector, from finance and law, to medicine, academia and even personal relationships. When artificial intelligence manages to perform tasks faster, cheaper and more accurately than humans, many jobs are at risk of disappearing.
2. Dramatic decline in birth rates
Without economic security, people are hesitant to start families. “Why have children,” he asks, “if unemployment awaits them from the cradle?” With rising living costs and the prospect of joblessness, birth rates—especially in developed countries—are sinking to historically low levels.
3. The spiral towards collapse
If this cycle continues, Kak predicts, the population will gradually shrink to the point where major cities will be emptied, turning into ghost metropolises. “London, New York and Tokyo could be left without inhabitants,” he says.
1. Space Colonization
Subhash Kak mentions Elon Musk's idea of building colonies on other planets as a backup plan for humanity. If Earth faces a major social and demographic collapse, then there is a possibility that human life could continue elsewhere in the universe.
2. Reorganizing the labor market
Other experts suggest that the long-term solution is to focus on occupations that AI cannot easily replace — such as work that requires human care, creativity, or emotional skills. This means new employment and education policies that strengthen these areas.
3. Technology for Humanity
Another path is to develop technologies that work with people, not against them. This includes collaborative robotics, the use of artificial intelligence in an open and controlled manner, and education that prepares people for a new automated world without making them redundant.
