Artificial intelligence support workers could be in Australia's future if the fertility rate continues to stay the same.
Maybe, just maybe it shouldn't cost close to 10k to even TRY to have a kid through IVF? More like 15k out of pocket costs till the Medicare rebate anyway.
1 in 6 aussie couples will struggle with infertility whilst 1 in 20 kids is born of IVF. https://monashivf.com/one-in-six/
1 in 6 couples. 1 in 20 babies. You can see a fair gap here. Unless your comfortably "middle class", you screwed. yes there are some public clinics with no gap, but the wait times are staggering. If we're worried about falling birth rates FULLY funding IVF and fertility treatments through Medicare is a no brainer.

Aren’t there enough people in the world already?!!?!?
The number of people in the world is predicted to start going negative before the end of this century.

Exactly
No. We still need to build under water and under ground cities. Plenty of places to inhabit before trying to make a space station and go to the nearest planets.
Ha yeah, sorry. Need the slaves to do that for the rich people huh?
There's plenty out there, thankfully! Line must go up!
The underground thing may yet work but if we’re fucking the atmosphere then we may not have much left to eat.
The decaying atmosphere will help the like going up and up! People will buy radiation blockers and and breathing machines. Very profitable+
Awesome. Can’t wait.
