Ed Elson and Scott Galloway are joined by Tyler Cowen to discuss why he’s not concerned about a potential AI bubble, how AI is reshaping the labor market, and why he thinks the data center buildout is ultimately a good thing. They also discuss who stands to benefit most from AI, why cybersecurity is a growing concern, how he would grade the U.S. economy today, and what he sees as the biggest obstacle to AI’s continued growth. Tyler Cowen is an economist, author, podcaster and chair of the Mercatus Center at George Mason University.
