Economic Policy Group co-organizers, John Cochrane and Valerie Ramey, hosted a talk on “Artificial Intelligence and Economic Growth.”
Presenter: Chad Jones, the STANCO 25 Professor of Economics at the Stanford Graduate School of Business and Senior Fellow at the Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Research
Moderator: Valerie Ramey, the Thomas Sowell Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution
SUMMARY
In this presentation, Chad Jones explores key questions regarding the relationship between artificial intelligence and economic growth: How do economists think about A.I. and economic growth? What are the prospects for accelerating growth over the next two decades, or do the bottlenecks sharply limit this possibility? Are we massively underinvesting in mitigating the potential downsides of A.I., including existential risk?
