Excited to present my paper at @nberpubs SI 2022 combined session on Macroeconomics & Productivity and CRIW (https://t.co/SsC1mgXzYU). I will talk about the relevance of firms' reorganization after adopting robots for productivity gains.
Thanks to the organizers and attendees!

How much trade in #AI - related products?

A lot. Trade in AI-related products is **the** dominant force in U.S. trade flows over the past two years. This is despite the changes in U.S. #trade policy and #tariffs

I coded up an open-source, not-for-profit AI paper reviewer that rivals the performance of @reviewer3com, @RefineInk, and Stanford Agentic Reviewer (according to @GeminiApp). Costs <$2!

🚨 Excited to share a new working paper! 🚨

AI can improve individual tasks. But when does it improve firm performance?

Our paper proposes one key friction firms face: the "mapping problem" -- discovering where and how AI creates value in a firm's production process.

Does import competition increase surviving firms' wage-setting power? In more exposed labor markets, yes — but markdowns explain only 6% of the relative wage decline. A thread on NBER WP "Trade, Labor Market Concentration, and Wages" 🧵👇

I am really happy about this paper. Through the process of writing it, we learned something fundamental about the workhorse model of labor market frictions - not just discovering normative properties (which, of course, is important), but also finding out how to analyze them.
