And I was pretty happy with that at the time.
And I kind of feel like I've stuck to that definition forever.
And then people have made up all kinds of other definitions.
But I feel like I like that definition.
Now, number one, the first concession that people make all the time is they just take out all the physical stuff because we're just talking about digital knowledge work.
I feel like that's a pretty major concession compared to the original definition, which was like any task a human can do.
I can lift things, et cetera.
Like AI can't do that, obviously.
So, okay, but we'll take it.
What fraction of the economy are we taking away by saying, oh, only knowledge work?
I don't actually know the numbers.
I feel like it's about 10% to 20%, if I had to guess, is only knowledge work.
Like someone could work from home and perform tasks, something like that.
Yeah.
I still think it's a really large market.
Like, yeah, what is the size of the economy and what is 10%, 20%?
Like, we're still talking about a few trillion dollars of, even in the U.S., of market share almost, or like work.
So, still a very massive bucket.
So, but I guess like going back to the definition, I guess what I would be looking for is to what extent is that definition true?
So, are there jobs or lots of tasks?
