I have a new article up on the MIT FutureTech website - addressing the wide-ranging and often eye-popping predictions of Generative AI's economic impact. I look into these forecasts of GenAI's productivity and GDP impacts and compare them to forecasts for previous technologies to put such claims into perspective.

Thank you to Peter Slattery, PhD and Neil Thompson for their feedback and support on this article! I am also thrilled to announce my formal affiliation with MIT FutureTech as an Affiliate Data Scientist. I look forward to continuing researching, writing, and publishing articles with the FutureTech lab as we share findings and insights on AI and computing trends.
