Depends on which version of "people" you count.
If you count early versions of humans on the evolution scale, which go back as far as 3 million years, over 60 billion "humans" have existed, about 10% of them living today.
But I think I still get your point, yeah a lot of ppl are around compared to thousands of year ago. The Earth has never been more "alive" than it is now.
