I quine prints it's own source code. This essentially prints an older version of itself.

The worlds population is/was racing towards 10B. It's just too much. 2-3B is realistic. AI can take over where new workers would have filled in. A small elite living in an AI paradise just as SciFi predicted is the right time to b
