Malthusian growth model

And I think they came to that from more like an engineering perspective, where you basically see a system and say, OK, if we continue going this way, what would happen? There's a lot of very interesting insights.

One is, look, we need to go past all these ideas of Malthusian exponential growth.

So Malthusian is like basically what I was taught, even in the 90s in biology, is that humans just going to keep filling up the planet.

It is bad for us and it's never going to slow down in any real way.

And they actually said, if you think that's bad, this is actually worse.

So growth is even faster than that.

So that, I believe, one contribution.

They said, look, we have to think past that Malthusian growth.
