        not true though is it. If the population increased by 0.000001% every 1000000 years and the average life expectancy is 50, for example

        Doesn't that depend on how long we live and the coefficient of the exponential growth?

        Also the way it's written its impossible, because living humans are a subset of all humans who have ever lived. They presumably mean living vs dead.

        As it is often the case with content from this account, the stated "facts" are usually correct but only under several additional assumptions.

        It is true with exponential growth, but we're not there now. It's estimated that over 100 billion members of our species have been born.
