You did some work with Maxim Masenkov, and you introduced an idea you called observed exposure.
which is the gap between what AI can do in theory and what Claude is actually being used for.
So what surprised you about that?
And how long will it take for that gap to be closed?
Why is that?
But that 1.8% productivity growth over 10 years that you talked about before, to what extent is that to do with augmentation?
And to what extent is it displacement?
I mean, obviously, if there's fewer workers doing the same thing, then productivity, labor productivity of the workers increases, right?
So did you kind of distinguish between those two things in thinking about the productivity growth?
