Simon Johnson: Can We Redirect Technological Change? When, How, and to Achieve What Exactly?

On Monday, October 9, 2023, Simon Johnson from the MIT Sloan School of Management joined us for his talk, "Can We Redirect Technological Change? When, How, and to Achieve What Exactly?"
Johnson discussed lessons and implications from his two recent books: Power and Progress: Our Thousand-Year Struggle Over Technology and Prosperity (co-authored with Daron Acemoglu, published in May 2023), and Jump-Starting America: How Breakthrough Science Can Revive Economic Growth and the American Dream (co-authored with Jon Gruber, published in 2019 and used in drafting the 2022 Chips and Science Act).
