Fascinating work on how different groups of experts expect GDP to change in the coming years. Kudos to @connacher_ , @pawtrammell , @BasilHalperin of the Stanford @DigEconLab and the others who did this data collection and analysis. @PTetlock always does such amazing work. My take? Most of the experts surveyed (I was one of them) are not optimistic enough about growth. Forecasting Research Institute (@Research_FRI) We completed the most comprehensive study of how economists and AI experts think AI will affect the U.S. economy.
