These hardly change. In consumer profiling, newer data points are added but the data points itself are not new, they are just now factored into the profiles. In the case of skills, there are limits or boundaries and added to this skills keep emerging with developments in different fields, technology developments and their applications and emerging of newer business models. Unlike geographical boundaries, we cannot draw clear boundaries to skills areas. There is an interplay between different areas. Today automotive ventures into electronics, life sciences into information technology. What this means is that occupations in different areas require skills from those where these skills may be predominantly used or be applicable. However, we will have to take into consideration this interplay. * **Skills is a very vast area that cuts across anything and everything in our walk of life, touching hundreds of disciplines, industries and functions.** From simple low skills occupations like portering or house cleaning to high complex fields like life sciences. Compare this with databases in other areas like ICD in healthcare which covers just one discipline. The scope of the skills database is quite vast and we could say infinite. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.itsyourskills.com/skills-thoughts/skills-landscape.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
