"Average is Over" is a concept popularized by economist Tyler Cowen in his book of the same name. It suggests that in an increasingly competitive and technology-driven world, simply being average is no longer sufficient for success. Those who can leverage technology and develop unique skills will thrive, while those who remain average may struggle to find opportunities. The idea emphasizes the growing importance of automation and artificial intelligence, which are reshaping job markets. As these technologies advance, they create a divide between high-skilled workers who can adapt and innovate, and low-skilled workers who may face job displacement.
