Apartments with less than 400 sq. ft. (WTH?)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejPOLhfBpy8 This is like a hotel room, a college dorm or a damn hamster cage!
While this might be OK for a single person, there should still be extra space for a separate bedroom. A kitchen-dining area as well as a proper living room. Thus, anything under 600 sq. ft. just isn't a proper 1 bedroom apartment. 2 and 3 bedroom apartments are essential for families. 4 and 5 bedroom apartments for larger families, but that gets more costly in several ways.

As AI gradually removes more jobs from people, some control-freaks might resort to implementing draconian social control measures over the disgruntled masses.

An AI Expert Warning: 6 People Are (Quietly) Deciding Humanity’s Future! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7Y-fynYsgE

A.I. safety expert Roman Yampolskiy Warns: "In 6 Months, It's All OVER"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0uQRR7DeQg 6 months seems too quick, but in 6 years more concerns might reach into the mainstream of humanity. In 6 decades unless some humane understanding is reached, something might have already wiped out humanity.
There has been an anti-human sentiment building up over the past several decades. The main motivating factor has been the concern about extreme population growth. From a multimillionaire perspective, more people on Earth means less resources for them. Adequate food and fresh water are a concern for a growing world population. Plus, how so many jobs can eventually be replaced by AI, causing mass unemployment and civil unrest.
What would happen if some Dr._Evil types and their minions could effectively get AI to kill off most, but not all people? Human improvements or human augmentation can be beneficial, but Transhumanism could eventually lead to the replacement of people with Synthetic Humans with Super AI intelligence.

Would he start to notice loops of coincidence and patterns of synchronicity out in the "real world"? Would he start to wonder if this world was like someone soundstage, laboratory or farm?
