My pet theory is that labor force participation declines and "automation" go hand in hand across all industries.

Automation isn't robots it's what used to be a 10 person marketing team doing the same amount of work but being more productive as they're all much more cross skilled and have more tools at their fingertips.

Same with some aspects of dev/operation. Same with some aspects of legal. Same with some aspects of medical/surgery.

The net result is that you end up with more roles that are senior level and less opportunities for entry level.
