Exploring the Macroeconomic Impact of AI on Growth: Insights from the Stripe Conference
After a lengthy winter of grappling with economic cycles, I’ve emerged invigorated by recent explorations into AI’s role in shaping our future. Attending the Stripe “Economics of AI Fellowship” and teaching an AI course has reignited my curiosity about the intersection of technology and economics.
Key Insights:

- Dynamic Debate: Current discussions on AI’s macroeconomic footprint promise clear answers in the near future, unlike many past economic controversies.
- Bottlenecks and Opportunities:
- Skepticism around AI’s potential is often tied to perceived limitations in capabilities.
- The interplay of finance, technology, and the regulatory landscape may dictate the pace of growth.
