AI & The Future of Work with Daron Acemoglu and David Autor
About this episode
Jon Stewart discusses the impact of artificial intelligence on the workforce with economists Daron Acemoglu and David Autor.
As artificial intelligence continues to integrate into the workforce, Jon is joined by MIT economists David Autor and Daron Acemoglu, recipient of the 2024 Nobel Prize in Economics, to understand what the future might hold for American workers. Together, they explore lessons from past waves of technological change, examine what pro-worker AI could look like, and discuss what policies could help workers navigate an increasingly uncertain economic future -- and whether the incentives exist to achieve them.
