LW is a specialized website/forum/community. Each day a vast torrent of news engulfs us—Susan Rice was involved in wiretapping Trump, NBER published a paper on the value of flexible work using the example of Uber drivers, a cute puppy got its tummy scratched. LW ignores almost all of it and for good reasons. Randomly pulling out pieces of flotsam and jetsam streaming past and plopping them into LW is not a particularly useful activity.
I am hoping some of the brilliant people in this community can come up with some good ideas on the future of work, employment , displacement and AI.
I understand that most folks here are the recipients of the benefits higher education, and further, that the logic and reasoning employed on problems and predictive models could be beneficial to examining these economic questions.
I guess you think i am just posting chaff, and adding to the noise level?
I am trying to post links to tools and databases, x-risk, AI and ML that i havn’t seen discussed, and econ ramifications of AI. The discussions of late on that last one are all styled on the UBI argument right now, but they seem to be closely enough related to be useful in thinking thru some of the possibilities and restrictions of different models.
Is there another group that i should be annoying that is looking at these topics that i havn’t found on the web?

Yeah, no. The general level of understanding economics here is pretty bad.

I think you’re posting random things which happen to catch your interest but which are not the focus of this forum and so they don’t get much traction.

I don’t know of decent economic forums (which didn’t devolve into YAY BLUE! and occasionally YAY RED!), but I haven’t looked very hard. Marginal Revolution is a good place, but it’s a blog with comments, not a forum.
You haven’t answered the question.
