OM DENNE EPISODE
Phil Trammell is an economics postdoc at Stanford University's Digital Economy Lab, working on questions related to economic growth and AI. He discusses:
- Why Piketty's thesis about runaway inequality was likely wrong about the past but right about the future
- How full automation turns capital and labour into gross substitutes
- Why catch-up growth between rich and poor countries could end
- How the privatisation of returns is already concentrating wealth
- Why family dynasties and inheritance become far more important in a post-automation economy
- Whether autocratic regimes can outgrow democracies after AGI
- How to measure whether capital is becoming truly self-replicating — and what the data currently shows
