Michael Roberts Evaluates Mainstream Economists’ Fetish of AI

Michael Roberts tells us that the Alliance of Social Science Association (ASA) is the biggest economics conference in the world. This year’s event was attended by 13,000 economists and their students.

Hundreds of papers were presented over a period of 3 days. The major focus of this year’s conference was artificial intelligence (AI).

They don’t understand how badly mistaken they are.
