Daron Acemoglu is an MIT economist and a 2024 Nobel laureate in Economic Sciences. He believes some of AI’s biggest business opportunities are being overlooked—but where does he see the real money, and what should you learn to stay valuable?
In this episode, I ask Daron where founders should look for opportunities beyond the AI hype. We talk about why helping workers become more productive can be better for business than replacing them, why existing models are already powerful enough to build useful applications, and where high-quality data creates an advantage. Daron also shares what he would study now and why builders need to spend more time talking to workers.
