It is. The outcome rate will not grow by the relative number of electrical engineers to population but by the absolute number of the engineers.

In theory, but I'm not sure that's true in practice. There are plenty of mundane, non-groundbreaking tasks that will likely be done by those electrical engineers and the more people, the more space, the more tasks are to be done. And not to mention more engineers does not equal better engineers. And the types to work on these sorts of projects are going to be the best engineers, not the "okay" ones.

It's certainly non-linear.

The more engineers you can sample from (in absolute number), the better (in absolute goodness, whatever that is) the top, say, 500 of them are going to be.

"not to mention more engineers does not equal better engineers."

funny that you mention this because many top AI talent from big tech companies are from chinnese Ivy league graduate

US literally importing AI talent war as highest as ever and yet you still have doubt
