AI Disruption: Simultaneously, experts warn that AI could eliminate 50% of entry-level jobs, raising concerns about job availability amidst shrinking workforce numbers.
-
Interdisciplinary Disconnect: Researchers from demographics, economics, and technology often operate in silos, creating gaps in understanding these intertwined issues.
Key Takeaways:
- Productivity and innovation may be more critical than sheer population numbers.
- Historical examples reveal that economic growth can thrive despite declining population sizes.
