      Maybe. Could also be that humans never invent anything that comes close to a biological brain. Either because we simply aren’t smart enough, or because civilization regresses before we get there. And there’s several trends going on currently which could cause civilization to regress. For example, climate change and declining birth rates (While we could set up an economic system that can deal with a shrinking and aging population, our current one cannot).

        Wait, since when population is shrinking? And since when it’s a bad thing too?

          I don’t think it is shrinking globally, yet. But, some countries (e.g. South Korea) are in dire situations due to shrinking and aging population already.

            But it’s mostly caused by social issues, imo it is nowhere near being a real problem

              I agree with your premise, but I don’t think it implies your conclusion, which I disagree with.
