Forget the job market, you know you've made it when you make an appearance in one of Glenn Ellison's game theory problem sets alongside @DAcemogluMIT 😂😂
A new @ForeignPolicy article by @m_ballesteross and @AOD_PhD examines Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador's contentious constitutional amendments, aimed at overhauling the country’s judiciary system. buff.ly/47sIKe0
Este 16 de septiembre, les comparto que @AOD_PhD y yo escribimos un artículo para @ForeignPolicy analizando la reforma del PJF. En resumen, la elección popular de jueces no tiene porque ser mortal para la democracia mexicana. Esperen una traducción al español mañana temprano.
My latest for @ForeignPolicy analyzing Mexico's judicial overhaul with @m_ballesteross 👇 "We argue that the real problem with Mexico’s judicial overhaul is not just direct elections for judges but rather the specific design of those elections." 1/🧵 rb.gy/4zzvpo
Thrilled to be a part of this group!
📣 Congratulations to the 2024-25 cohort of Peace Scholar Fellows! These 19 scholars, who are conducting their dissertation research at universities across the U.S., demonstrated the greatest potential to advance the peacebuilding field. Learn more: usip.org/press/2024/09/…

Regulating new technologies is proving to be one of the main political challenges of this century. Curious to learn about the optimal way to regulate new tech? Check out what @talensman and @DAcemogluMIT have to say in their new paper, now in @AEAjournals aeaweb.org/articles?id=10…
The September 2024 issue of AER: Insights (6, 3) is now available online at aeaweb.org/issues/775.
Forthcoming in AER: Insights: "Regulating Transformative Technologies" by Daron Acemoglu and Todd Lensman. aeaweb.org/articles?id=10…
A.I. is going to disrupt the labor market. It doesn’t have to destroy it. #AI ms.spr.ly/6015iEUJx
New 📝: @DAcemogluMIT + @talensman present a model to study optimal regulation of transformative tech, accounting for its potential for both misuse and growth - with reference to our open letter calling for a pause on giant AI experiments. Read it here ⬇️ nber.org/papers/w31461
Developing a multi-sector technology adoption model to study the optimal regulation of transformative technologies when society can learn about these risks over time, from @DrDaronAcemoglu and @talensman nber.org/papers/w31461
In a new working paper on regulating transformative technologies, @DAcemogluMIT and @talensman model that slower development and adoption of new tech, like generative AI, could be optimal in some circumstances. Read the feature by @TimFernholz in @qz: qz.com/the-economic-c…
Check out this great thread by @DAcemogluMIT summarizing the main insights from our new paper on regulating transformative technologies!
It is commonplace to argue that you cannot slow down the development and rollout of (generative) AI. Anyways, it would be highly inadvisable — Luddism worse than its original.
Regulating Transformative Technologies - Marginal REVOLUTION Thank you to @tylercowen for the shoutout to our new paper on regulating transformative technologies, such as generative AI. I will write more about the paper in a later post marginalrevolution.com/marginalrevolu…
Very excited to circulate a new paper with @DAcemogluMIT about how we should think about regulating AI and other transformative technologies! toddlensman.com/files/research…
Thank you Glen, excited to have the working paper out!
I don't know the literature nearly as well as the rationalist/longtermist crowd, but this new paper by @talensman and @DrDaronAcemoglu is one of the best attempts I know of to quantitatively model the trade-offs of tech risk: economics.mit.edu/sites/default/…. Reactions from that world?
