So what do we know?
So I think we know two things.
First, we know this is moving incredibly quickly.
We know the technology is developing really rapidly.
We know that companies are adopting it really rapidly.
And when I talk to not just sort of the boosters in Silicon Valley, but talk to corporate leaders across industries, when I talk to economists, right, there's sort of increasing confidence that this is going to have a real impact on our economy, our labor force, our lives.
Okay.
And, you know, we just actually a few days ago got a statement that was signed by around 200 economists in which they warn that this could be an unprecedented transformation of our economy, larger than the industrial revolution, but unfolding over a vastly shorter period of time.
That's a pretty big deal.
But the second thing we know is that whatever that effect is, it's subtle so far.
If AI were already wiping out huge swaths of jobs, we would see that in our data, right?
Our data is not perfect, but we would know that.
And so whatever effect it's having, it's subtle right now.
And that may sound surprising, right?
I'm saying on the one hand, it's going to be this huge thing.
On the other hand, we don't really see anything of it yet.
Yeah, how do you square those?
When you actually look at the history of this, it's not that surprising.
Because if we look at the way technology gets rolled out in an economy, it often follows a pattern that economists talk about as a J curve.
Literally, it's just referring to the shape of the letter J, right?
