The really short answer:  the amount of well-applied intelligence
required to do something that creates significant value has been
increasing every year for a long time.  People aren't getting smarter,
the intelligence we have is decreasing in value, and intelligence is
not meaningfully additive.

If you are an investor trying to get a certain return on investment,
that means the pool of people that can deliver the required value is
shrinking.

It is a very hard problem.
