🌐📖MIT’s Daron Acemoglu Warns AI May Deepen Inequality A new survey suggests AI is more likely to reinforce existing economic advantages than broadly distribute benefits. MIT professor and Nobel laureate Daron Acemoglu stated that public narratives portray AI tools as democratizing, while effective use often depends on education, abstract and quantitative skills, and familiarity with computers and coding. Acemoglu argued that AI is likely to increase inequality between labour and capital, indicating that the economic gains from adoption may be unevenly distributed. The comments add to ongoing debates over whether AI policy should address access, skills, and concentration of economic power. #AIRegulation#AIethics#Inequality#FutureOfWork#AIEconomics
