And so the question they have, and there's no way to get the data, is did we overcount our population by 100 million people?
Or did we overcount by 300 million people or more?
So even according to the official statistics, China is no longer the most populous country.
That's India.
It has been for a while.
Probably has been since about 2006.
The Chinese are now publicly admitting that their birth rate has been lower than the United States' since 1991.
And it looks like it might be significantly worse than that.
So yeah, 10 years.
Correct.
80% of applications for AI that I have seen and the other 20% are not a different category.
They're just in flux.
But 80% I've seen, it's not about where we have the work shortage.
It's about white collar workers.
It's about making white collar workers either redundant or more productive.
And if you're into some degree of data collation and assessment, you're in real trouble.
If you have the brainpower to take the data in front of you and make something of it, you're probably fine, at least for now.

That whole job category is going to go away.
Because your job is basically to research multiple cases and bring the information together for someone who will then take it and do value add.
