If seems to me briefly that
AI takes loads of jobs, government have to tax companies higher as they are saving.on wages, companies like now will claim poverty or threaten to move production elsewhere as we continue to compete with the rest of the world, previous high immigration means more people needing a universal income which means everyone gets less.
Civil unrest and more of the country has been damaged by higher consumption due to higher immigration.
Ai doesn't take loads of jobs but people continue to live even longer, birth rates still low, ponzi scheme collapses because there ain't enough people globally. But we now have extra people to look after due to higher immigration, problem of demographics still has to be solved, time wasted, country worse off due f to consumption because we continually put off dealing with the situation.
Governments around the world encourage/pay people to have more children. Ponzii scheme survives but cannot last forever, back to square one.
The benefit of higher immigration, gets us thru now to the detriment of later if one is only concerned about GDP and not the other negatives it brings.
When species become rampant they get culled and with good reason, humans are the only ones who can control their numbers, they prefer to rampage thru everything instead.
