The author wrote that population projections assume fertility rates will stop declining and broadly stabilize, but said a new NBER paper found no evidence for that expectation. The author added that, according to the paper, fertility had tended to keep falling in places and periods where it had already reached low levels.

The poorest economies in the world are not achieving economic growth. The consequence is that progress against the very worst poverty is coming to a halt. This is one of the worst problems in the world today, but hardly gets any attention. https://t.co/yXVgf3otHu #Poverty #EconomicGrowth #GlobalIssues #Nospecificcountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.

Much of his recent thinking has focused on what to do as AI becomes rapidly more powerful. This makes his book useful for all of us right now..

How will your country's demographics change this century? At Our World in Data we built a tool to let you see for yourself. The UN's assumptions are the starting point. But then you can adjust the three drivers of change — births, deaths, and migration — to what you expect. https://t.co/r8gMsEmlf2 #Demographics #PopulationGrowth #DataVisualization #Nospecificcountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.

Anthropic's new model, Claude Mythos, is so powerful that they're not releasing it. They must have good reasons. They're willing to forgo a lot of revenue. @robertwiblin on what we know so far about how dangerous the current situation is. https://t.co/yPYqYI7nt6 #AI #MachineLearning #Ethics #Nospecificcountriesarementionedinthearticle.Therefore #theresultisanemptyresponse.
