I may have posted about this in the past ( this getting old is a curse ) and my memory is not what it use to be . Every where I go there they are , like mind controlled robots waiting for their hourly instructions from the controller . They stand on street corners with their heads bent downwards , I’m in Big C  , and bugger me all the sales assistants are leaning up against the walls , heads bent down and ignoring us customers . There they are heads bent downwards mindlessly staring at their
mobile phones. I wonder what its going to be like in 100 Years time .

Less than 100 years! I reckon 20 years will see the world transformed. AI is going to replace so many jobs - what are people going to do to earn a living? The whole fabric of society is going to have to change.

Birth rates are falling in two thirds of countries. The threshold to replace each generation is a birth rate of 2.1. Here is where Thailand stands:

Rank:  185
1960 = 6.25
1975 = 4.40
1990 = 2.09
2005 = 1.59
2020 = 1.34

South Korea is bottom at 0.85
The UK is at 1.56
US is at 1.64
China is 1.28
Even India is below the threshold at 2.05

The only country not in Africa in the 'top' 30 is Afghanistan (these all have a birth rate above 4.09 and Niger, at the top, is 6.89)

Some interesting numbers there , the more I read about '' AI '' the more I think it may turn into a nightmare .
