🎙️ In this episode, economist and futurist Robin Hanson (George Mason University) explores the global fertility decline and what it means for innovation, culture, and civilization’s future.
We discuss:

• Why fertility is falling even in times of plenty
• How cultural drift is driving demographic collapse
• Why population decline may slow innovation and collapse economies
• What happens when civilizations are replaced by high-fertility subcultures
• Whether AI can save us — or if lifeboats like the Amish already have

A fascinating, wide-ranging look at what happens after the peak.
