>>Baby Boomers (the largest generation the US has ever had) are retiring en mass.
I dont know the demographics data, but I know a number of boomers personally that are "semi-retired" meaning they are "retired" but they still work some in gig-ecomony jobs, some even work in must smaller almost gig style (i.e project based) jobs for either their old employers or in the same field they were in as Full time employees.

I think this explains a large portion of the gig work that the author of the blog post pointed to, instead of the author’s theory that employers are doing it intentionally.
