Economist Jones Presents AI Automation Growth Findings

Charles I. Jones, Stanford economist, visited Yale this week to present new research on AI, automation, and economic measurement. In joint work with Christopher Tonetti, he argues automation shifts tasks from human labor to rapidly improving machines but overall growth may be constrained by hard-to-automate "weak links"; with Philip Trammell he proposes using changes in the statistical value of life rather than GDP to measure lifetime well-being.
