For economic development, we need something new that is qualitatively different so that the economy provides sufficient jobs for people. If not, economic development is only associated with efficiency improvement, resulting in lower employment. (Pasinetti)

With the emergence of AI, people worry about the future in which AI steals our jobs. When we look back at the history of industrialization, this kind of worry has always existed. However, there has never been an employment crisis.

As far as we are concerned, we, by TEVECON, show that qualitative change in the economy—including increasing variety—can compensate for decreasing current jobs by creating employment in new sectors.

When new sectors are created, the number of jobs does not decrease despite an increase in efficiency.
