Summary

Jason Furman, the former White House chief economist now at Harvard University, has used artificial intelligence to build a platform that can do work once handled by teams of economists — and it has left him wondering what happens to the people who used to do those jobs. He joins Stephanie Flanders to talk about AI’s impact on work, education and the economics profession, and what the US midterm results reveal about the politics of affordability and the backlash against data centers.
