Generative AI 101

The Post-AGI Economist Cometh


Listen Later

What do you get when an AI lab hires an economist to model post-scarcity? A chill down your spine. Host Emily Laird takes you inside DeepMind’s latest job posting that hints at a future where AGI isn’t science fiction, it’s a macroeconomic problem. Forget product demos, this episode is about power, inequality, and why AI’s endgame might look more Cyberpunk 2077 than utopia. Buckle up: Emily pulls no punches.
