Prof. Daron Acemoglu speaks with NPR Planet Money hosts Greg Rosalsky and Darian Woods about the anticipated economic impacts of generative AI. Acemoglu notes he believes AI is overrated because humans are underrated. "A lot of people in the industry don't recognize how versatile, talented, multifaceted human skills and capabilities are," Acemoglu says. "And once you do that, you tend to overrate machines ahead of humans and underrate the humans."
