In 1960, Heinz von Foerster predicted that humanity would reach a critical point of overpopulation on November 13, 2026, leading to a so-called apocalypse. His calculations suggested that the population would explode, but recent trends show a decline in birth rates due to demographic transition. Today, the global population exceeds 8 billion, and projections indicate stabilization around 10.3 billion by the 2080s. Although the predicted apocalypse won't occur, Foerster's equation has resurfaced in discussions about the rapid growth of Artificial Intelligence, paralleling the exponential trends he identified.
