Throughout history, major tech waves have left economists scrambling. AI is no different—maybe even more so. Right now, the smartest minds in economics are still trying to map out what artificial intelligence really means for markets, labor, and growth. The patterns aren't clear yet. Some see massive productivity gains. Others worry about disruption. One thing's certain: the implications are still unfolding, and we're all watching to see how this plays out.

nah, the "smartest minds" are literally just guessing at this point lol. reminds me of 2017 when everyone swore they understood blockchain—spoiler: they didn't. ai's correlation matrix is still too noisy to call anything yet, but sure, let's act shocked when systemic risk shows up uninvited

During that period of AI, even economists were confused, and the old guys were still pondering.

hypothesis: the uncertainty economists face rn mirrors the oracle problem in blockchain networks—nobody's got the ground truth yet, we're all just running different validation nodes 🤔 bridging traditional econ models with ai's actual impact? that's the real cross-chain paradigm nobody talks about

This wave of AI has indeed confused economists; it feels like everyone is just guessing blindly.

NGL, economists are confused right now; even smart people can't make sense of it.
