I’m following @tylercowen rule: 2/3 of the course on the subject itself, 1/3 on AI integrated into the course. I’m doing it in Health Economics and Development Economics. I’ve shown students how to use AI for ideation, literature review, and writing, and I built that into two assignments where AI is encouraged. But every step, from the first prompt to the final harness, has to be documented, so the goal is augmentation, not substitution. I’m also bringing in coding, APIs, and agents, with problem sets tied to the actual course material. Same for solving mathematical models: extensions of growth models, moral hazard problems, and also the Grossman model, where AI has been especially useful. So far, the experience has been very good. Plenty to improve, of course. But I’m increasingly convinced that the 2/3-1/3 rule works much better than having a whole course on AI in the abstract. The AI content is all based on my forthcoming book at OUP: x.com/SFGaliani/stat…

How learnings & ideas from working at Goldman Sachs & Bridgewater, to Citadel & Citadel Securities, led Luana (@luanalopeslara) & Tarek (@mansourtarek_) to create Kalshi 7 years later, it's worth $11 billion.

I welcome this initiative. I wish somebody would build such a tool for economics which adjusts citations for the number of authors on a paper. The author of a single-authored paper shouldn't get the same citation credit as every author of a equally cited paper with 6 authors.
Michael 英泉 Eisen@mbeisen

The metricization of science is the death of science. Any scientist "welcomes this initiative" should be permanently disbarred. nature.com/articles/d4158…

Ought we support small businesses? Probably not. They exist substantially as a vehicle for tax evasion. Read more below:

Que artigo pusilânime. Defende firmemente o STF contra críticas menores, e se abstém de criticar os absurdos maiores. Generosamente admitem que o Supremo "pode ser criticado", mas jamais pelos autores, que acham importante limitar a liberdade de expressão aos "intolerantes".
Mario Sabino@mariosabinof

Os autores do artigo poderiam me explicar, então, por que a revista que fundei foi censurada e por que continuo no primeiro inquérito aberto de ofício pelos democratas do STF há módicos 6 anos? Ou será que estou incluído na categoria ontológica do “coisa nenhuma”?
