Three U.S.-based academics won the 2024 Nobel economics prize on Monday for their research into why global inequality persists, especially in countries dogged by corruption and dictatorship. The laureates have demonstrated the importance of societal institutions for achieving this,” said Jakob Svensson, Chair of the Committee for the Prize in Economic Sciences. Last year, Harvard economic historian Claudia Goldin won the prize for her work highlighting the causes of wage and labour market inequality between men and women. In 2019, economists Abhijit Banerjee, Esther Duflo and Michael Kremer won the award for work on fighting poverty. The economics prize has been dominated by U.S. academics since its inception, while U.S.-based researchers also tend to account for a large portion of winners in the scientific fields for which 2024 laureates were announced last week.

MIT economist warns AI infrastructure investments may not meet investor profit expectations. Only 5% of jobs are likely to be significantly impacted by AI in the next decade, according to the economist. That's according to MIT Economist Daron Acemoglu, who told Bloomberg in an interview that the hype surrounding AI may not meet its lofty expectations. The most optimistic scenario, according to Acemoglue, is that AI hype cools and some applications of the technology take hold. In such a scenario, investors and tech executives would become disenchanted with AI, leading to a "AI spring followed by AI winter."

Remember the 1990s, when everybody thought liberal democracy was the only game in town and the end of history was upon us? The near-assassination of former President Donald Trump has buttressed, instead, a feeling that crisis is upon us. Trust in public schools, banks, large firms, the news media and even religious organizations have similarly plummeted since the 1970s. We need a new democratic social contract that people can believe in, which is most likely to come from the Democratic Party.

As an enormous ballhandler with serious touch and incredible vision as a passer, Topić is clearly an NBA player, even if it doesn’t all translate. Shannon is an elite athlete, but the NBA game requires more nuance, especially if he continues to be an inconsistent shooter.

And while some companies are simply exaggerating the tech they do legitimately use, others have taken it a step further. Most companies aren't being accused of breaking the law with their AI chatter, but they're definitely posturing around it.

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Richmond couldn't have started any slower against No. 16 Dayton in the sold out Robins Center on Saturday night, missing its first 11 shots to fall behind 9-0. The victory was Richmond's 10th in a row, their longest winning streak since the 1934-35 team won 22 straight. Isaiah Bigelow and Dji Bailey added 12 points each for Richmond, (15-5, 7-0) with Bigelow also grabbing 15 rebounds. I thought we got out of character at times offensively, rushed some things,” Flyers coach Anthony Grant said.
