In a jaw-dropping social media exchange, Elon Musk has reignited the global debate on a silent crisisā€”plummeting fertility rates. šŸšØ Responding to Singaporeā€™s ā€œbaby crisis,ā€ Musk didnā€™t mince words:

ā€œSingapore (and many other countries) are going extinct.ā€

šŸ’” The Shocking Stats:

Singaporeā€™s Total Fertility Rate hit an unprecedented low of 0.97 in 2023, far below the replacement level of 2.1. This alarming trend threatens the very foundation of the nationā€™s economy and society.

šŸ“‰ Whatā€™s Driving This Crisis?

Shifting Marital Trends: A growing number of women aged 25ā€“34 are choosing to remain unmarried, slashing birth rates.

Long-Term Decline: Fertility rates among women aged 25ā€“34 have been spiraling downward since the 1990s.

šŸ¤– Robotics to the Rescue?

As the population ages and the workforce shrinks, Singapore is leading a global pivot to automation:

Ranked 2nd worldwide in robot density, with 770 industrial robots per 10,000 workers.

Teslaā€™s humanoid robots hint at a future where automation shoulders the loadā€”but is it enough to replace a thriving population?

šŸšØ The Bigger Picture

Elon Muskā€™s warning isnā€™t just for Singapore. Itā€™s a wake-up call for every nation facing similar demographic cliffs. Fertility isnā€™t just a personal choiceā€”itā€™s an existential challenge for our future.
