This week, EconoFact Chats features an abridged version of an Ask Me Anything webinar with John Cassidy of The New Yorker focusing on his new book, 'Capitalism and Its Critics: A History from the Industrial Revolution to AI.' Cassidy discusses why capitalism has proved resilient, mutating in times of crisis rather than collapsing, what challenges AI could pose over the coming years, and how the system might adapt.

John is a staff writer at The New Yorker. His previous book, 'How Markets Fail: The Logic of Economic Calamities,' was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize.
