I found this long post from OpenAIs chief scientist a bit bonkers. Outstanding, but bonkers.
Outstanding because you see someone smart and honest reason carefully through a very, very hard problem. Bonkers because of what follows from that reasoning.

So much for the job apocalypsis.
As Jin Li, Yanhui Wu and I argue in Messy Jobs: "Apocalyptic predictions that Ai will eliminate millions of jobs have caused widespread fear...Messy Jobs argues that this gloomy belief gets the economics of work wrong"

This is, to me, the most shocking graph from yesterday's Saxony-Anhalt. The traditional parties have lost the blue collar workers.
(All of the exit analysis is astonishing. Take a look here: https://t.co/pH61x9spR9) https://t.co/Uq2WemcutU

@lugaricano @patrickc Very interesting choice that there's no one from Poland. Out of 40 people not one Polish. To be honest, this seems not accidental but xenophobic.

Best of luck!

We stopped everything to write an answer (link below) to Paul Krugman's two posts of today (one informal, one with a simple model) arguing that Europe is broadly not falling behind the United States.
The change measured by the Draghi report, he argues, is mostly due to growth
