But seriously, the learning is there's a lot of perspectives out there that say that AI could be an equalizing force.

And I think we need to interrogate, is it an equalizing force?

As vigorously as we interrogate, could it be driving further inequality?

I don't think we know the answer to that.

And I'll end with this.

In the end, the decision is going to be ours.

It's not going to be the technology's.

The technology's don't, you know, kind of inherently decide.

We decide.

Which I'm very excited to be at.

Sure, absolutely.

So first of all, I will just say thank you.

You're an economist, and you're going into public service?

Fantastic.

Seriously, we need people like yourselves who are interested in doing this.

This is a very fantastic career.

I would call it a vocation to be in public service and serving on the types of things that are the Federal Reserve's and other public institutions' missions.

So that's important.

The important thing about public service that I think is overlooked

is one of the biggest skills you have to have as an economist is being a detective.
