    what is even the point of this graph? GDP is a nonsensical metric that barely tells anything about the economy, let alone society and technology.

    Even if you don't care about money, you shouldn't be feeling like you're on steady well-trodden ground if you live on the side of a steep slope like this. The same would go for e.g. scientific output (however that's measured), world population, agricultural output, and so on.
