How are you thinking about the impacts of AI on the economy and society writ large?
AI will reshape the world in ways we still can’t imagine, much as the printing press and the Internet did. I’ve spent my career looking at companies and industries to determine which are poised for growth and which are on the decline. The timeliness and effectiveness of AI implementation will be a major factor in determining the next winners and losers. More broadly, AI has the potential to do tremendous good in society, but it is not without risks. If we want to realize AI’s full upside, we need to advance the ethical considerations in tandem with the technology.
