I am one of the signatories on this amicus brief, filed yesterday, on the importance of central bank independence.

On Friday, the Stone Center and @MITSloan hosted @mikehposner for a discussion of his book, Conscience Incorporated. The wide-ranging conversation, moderated by @baselinescene, explored the role of business leaders in addressing pressing societal challenges such as inequality.

NEW: ARI and @AmerCompass are calling on the Senate to keep the GAIN AI Act in the NDAA. This is an America First AI policy that requires chip makers to sell to US firms before selling to China and other countries of concern. Read the full letter: https://t.co/5jlkPjkc30

📖💬💥 Read Power and Progress: The Mini-Comic! Polly (a robot) and Daisy (a historian) debate whether AI will cause harm or do good. Developed with the @BUArts Visual Narrative MFA program, based on Power & Progress by @DAcemogluMIT & @baselinescene https://t.co/KE5b9J7Qgx

In its eagerness to do the crypto industry’s bidding, the US Congress is adopting legislation that will expose Americans and the world to the real possibility of massive job losses and wealth destruction, writes Simon Johnson (@baselinescene).

How will AI impact inequality, in the US and globally? Co-director @baselinescene discusses what the preliminary data suggests. Global economies whose competitive advantage currently comes from labor-intensive work could have the most to lose.

Why are some countries rich and others poor? How do institutions drive prosperity — or inequality? @baselinescene unpacks these questions and more on this week's @planetmoney episode. https://t.co/vywj94VcXI

The MIT Shaping the Future of Work Initiative is now the James M. and Cathleen D. Stone Center on Inequality and Shaping the Future of Work. Hear from our co-directors @DAcemogluMIT, @davidautor, and @baselinescene about our mission and goals for the years ahead.

"Our concern is that AI, which is made possible by our institutions, is pulled in a direction that undermines democracy." Read insights from co-director @baselinescene in the @IMFNews Finance & Development Magazine: https://t.co/b0KQyr7XYD

I appeared on W Radio this morning to discuss the impacts of the House budget bill for working people.

My op-ed with Brooksley Born on the GENIUS bill is now live. "As currently drafted, the GENIUS bill paves another road to financial self-destruction that will undermine the American and global economy." https://t.co/x3zYjG8wFM

Co-director @baselinescene explains why the US auto industry had such a massive increase in productivity in the early 20th century — and how workers were able to benefit, despite widespread automation.

We urgently need strong regulatory oversight of stablecoins. The GENIUS Act lacks fundamental provisions to preserve financial stability and would increase systemic risk stemming from stablecoin runs and inadequate guardrails on foreign issuers.

Co-director @baselinescene argues that Trump’s tariffs don’t mean the end of globalization, but rather a remaking of it. The flows of ideas, trade, finance & people will be reorganized, with significant consequences for who wins & loses around the world — and who has good jobs.

Tensions between the @federalreserve and US presidents is nothing new. But @realDonaldTrump's efforts to end the independence of all federal agencies is particularly worrisome, write Simon Johnson (@baselinescene) and @LiikanenErkki.
