It's not a disinformation campaign. It is literal Darwinism. Societies and cultures that don't promote having kids cease to exist.
I tend to think the whole "drop in birth rate" thing is overblown. It will correct itself in a generation or two, after people who lose the drive to reproduce in modern, information rich environments are removed from the gene pool. This is the strongest selective pressure our species has come under in quite a while. And if all that comes out on the other side is a bunch of Mormons, Muslims, and Haredi Jews, so be it. Natural selection has spoken.
I had an interesting thought about this (the capacity of AI to replace humans) today while using Claude. It is very good at suggesting possibilities. Telling me how I can do something. But if I argue long enough, it will almost always concede the point. I'm sure that I'm not always right in these arguments.
What it lacks is not judgement so much as convictions. Knowing which points are flexible and which are not. And this is important because when an agent is working on something, it has to make a lot of small decisions with compounding effects. Recently the quality of these decisions while made in a vacuum has been getting much better. But the second they start getting push-back from the real world, I have a strong suspicion that the agents are just going to roll over.
