Fortune magazine. The AI productivity boost is (for the moment) fictional.
"Daron Acemoglu has a number for everything. The MIT economist — who won the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences in 2024 for his work on institutions and prosperity — estimates that roughly 0.55% in total factor productivity gains is what AI will actually deliver over the next decade, a fraction of Wall Street’s euphoric projections. He estimates only about 5% of tasks will be profitably automated in the near term, equivalent to a 1% or 1.5% increase in GDP."
"Acemoglu nodded when Fortune mentioned his finding that most research on AI productivity is overblown because it overwhelmingly focuses on easy, well-defined tasks where context is clear. These are not representative of the economy, which simply isn’t set up with so many of those, and AI is just not great for hard tasks yet. “You need new tools, sort of a tool that reliably understands and distills the best research, and is not swayed by the worst research in a particular field, and provides that to you in a context relevant and an accurate manner, and allows you to interrogate it.”
