No the population isnt going to decrease, at least for a few more decades (estimates are in the 2060s we will peak). However, we can look at it on a country by country basis. Here we see a different story. Japan is turning to automation out of necessity. They have an ongoing demographic issue that is not reversing. The aging population is causing labor shortages.
Germany, Italy, and China are facing the same thing. So they might actually be aided by automation.
Other countries not so much.
So how do we handle it? Nobody has an answer. For the time being, it appears the solution is to act like it is not happening.
