Having a few billion people is great because that gives economies of scale for anything we want to do. An incoming asteroid deflector can be invented and built by 10 million people without breaking a sweat. The other 5 billion enjoy the benefit. 10,000 people invented CDMA and a lot more besides so 5 billion can copy/paste and enjoy mobile Cyberspace at zero marginal cost. A few thousand people can invent Teslas and autonomous cars so 5 billion can nap while traveling at a tenth of the cost of a taxi or their own car ... faster, more conveniently, safer. 100 people can invent a medical diagnostic tool so hordes of people avoid medical mayhem. The biggie is that several thousand can invent extra-somatic intelligence to turbo charge brains and replace them. Already extra-somatic memory is a billion times better than 1 kg of regular brain. The thinking process is getting better in leaps and bounds. Chess, Go and other intellectual activities are already much better done by dry silicon than wet carbon. Mqurice
