Interesting stuff on Fertility as always. I reckon the varying past to current labour types will affect the reproduction rates or the validity of comparative pooled labour.
Big difference between the new era content producers and old age manufacturing labour.
If less pooled labour volume results in more fertility than perhaps more efficient productivity or less burdensome labour “could” also increase fertility rates.
However I feel it’s much more a materialistic society than ever Madonna imagined.
This is overcomplicating things. I dont think Nigeria has a lack of labor despite the high fertility rate. The longer you live, the later you think of having kids or not at all if your clock has run out. We just live in a happy coincidence, where the rise of AI will require less labor for equal or more output, so population bust wont be a problem for prosperity, unless skynet decides to kill us.
Hi Russel. Why does going from 125 to 60 mln make you uncomfortable? As you said, we went from 2.5 to 8 bln effectively in one lifetime. Never seen before. Now, THATS uncomfortable, objectively. Yet, we perceive it as normal, for some reason. While it’s anything but.
