Key points
- The United Nations projects that the global human population will peak at about 10.3 billion in the mid-2080s before beginning a gradual decline.
- The scenario is one of over 4,000 possible combinations considered, based on market forecasts that more than 1 billion humanoid robots will exist by 2050.
- Without an additional android-mediated production channel, growth at the current pace would put their numbers at around 4 billion in 2100, still well below the projected human population of about 10.2 billion, according to the paper.
