Finding Meaning (and Money) in the AI Age
-
Narrated by:
-
By:
Betsey Stevenson is a labor economist at the University of Michigan, and she was an economic adviser to President Obama. Betsey’s problem is this: How can we create a world where the benefits of AI are broadly shared?
Betsey draws on history – including how the invention of household appliances created a crisis of meaning for American women – to understand how we should respond to the challenge of AI. And she suggests policies to help spread the wealth AI could bring.
In this episode, Betsey explains:
- How Engels’ Pause serves as a warning for workers
- How 20th century women adapted to automation
- How AI has changed life for college students
- The argument for taxing AI firms and distributing the proceeds to the public
