October 2, 2024, Opinion: "Welcome back! Last week we talked about the history of machinists and how computers shifted the demands of the job from technical precision to problem-solving and teamwork.  This morning, the Aspen Economic Strategy Group released a paper I wrote with Chris Ong and Larry Summers called “Technological Disruption in the Labor Market.” You can find the paper here. Also, Larry and I will be talking about the paper and about my new survey of generative AI usage in the U.S. at an event at HKS this evening (Monday 10/7). Please come by if you are local – if not, check out the livestream!"
