For instance, here's a thread about the Turing Trap written by chat.openai.com/chat based on the abstract of the paper.
1/ In 1950, Alan Turing proposed the "imitation game" as a test for AI - could it imitate a human so well that its answers were indistinguishable from a human's? Since then, creating AI that matches human intelligence has been a goal.
2/ The benefits of human-like AI (HLAI) include soaring productivity, increased leisure, and a better understanding of our own minds. But not all AI is human-like - many of the most powerful systems are very different from us.

Polarization, a🧵

30 years ago, the Internet was hailed as creating a globally connected community.

Yet today, we're seeing more attention to how social media are *increasing* polarization.

E.g. @elipariser @JonHaidt and others

#cyberbalkans
#polarization

@elipariser @JonHaidt What’s driving the increased online polarization?

Marshall van Alstyne explore how greater connectivity could great filter bubbles and amplify differences between groups in our 1996 and 2005 papers.

2/n
@elipariser @JonHaidt In theory, virtual communities let us connect with far more people and ideas.

In practice, our time, attention and mental processing capacity are still limited, so we must limit who we interact with.

@SarahHBana @DigEconLab Using Language Models to Understand Wage Premia

Abstract
Does the text content of a job posting predict the salary offered for the role? There is ample evidence that even within an occupation, a job's skills and tasks affect the job's salary.

1/n
@SarahHBana @DigEconLab Capturing this fine-grained information from postings can provide real-time insights on prices of various job characteristics. Using a new dataset from Greenwich.HR with salary information linked to posting data from Burning Glass Technologies, ...

Our new @nberpubs paper is out:

"Advanced Technologies Adoption and Use by U.S. Firms: Evidence from the Annual Business Survey".

We report on the adoption of AI, cloud computing, robotics and the digitization of business information at 850,000 firms.
nber.org/papers/w28290
@nberpubs We find that digitization is quite widespread, as is some use of cloud computing.

In contrast, advanced technology adoption is rare and generally skewed towards larger and older firms.
@nberpubs Adoption patterns are consistent with a hierarchy of increasing technological sophistication, in which most firms that adopt AI or other advanced business technologies also use the other, more widely diffused technologies
