You still didn’t address how it will make machines replace people in jobs. There are already tons of people without jobs in the world that want to work but aren’t getting hired. World population is still growing. Population in the US is still growing. It isn’t growing as an equally rapid rate as some past years, but it’s still growing.

I’m not OP and never made any claim to a correlation between population and mechanization. But one day the price for young blood might actually take a sharp incline when the population demographic looks like Japan, we either won’t be around to see it or we’ll be too old to reap the benefits. The US is growing by immigration by the way it’s birth rate is 1.6 per woman.
