Does automation look more like a crashing wave hitting some workers and not others, or a broadly rising tide? Our latest Substack post from @adamkuzee explains the concepts and data behind a recent MIT FutureTech paper on the shape of AI progress: mitfuturetech.substack.com/p… @MITSloan @MIT_CSAIL @ProfNeilT #AI #Automation #FutureOfAI #FutureOfWork #AIResearch #MITFutureTech

@porat_ruth leads the discussion on global #AIAdoption with @elerianm and FutureTech Research Scientist @Fleming_Martin at the #google #mitfuturetech #AIfortheEconomy Forum Read our latest research on the economics of human AI collaboration here: arxiv.org/html/2603.29121v1

@ProfNeilT kicks off the #google #MITFuturetech #AIfortheEconomyForum with our findings on AI automation from Thousands of Worker Evaluations of Labor Market Tasks. Read the full paper: arxiv.org/abs/2604.01363

Extending our gratitude to Nobel Prize Laureate and Turing Award Winner @geoffreyhinton for speaking at the MIT FutureTech Lab Seminar, we were honored to have him speak. Read the full presentation: "Living with Alien Beings" drive.google.com/file/d/1taG… #AISafety #AIResearch

Senior Data Scientist Anna Li points out the limitations in quantum computing as a solution to the AI memory wall. “We would need to reinvent the entire stack, which would take a long time to mature.” #AIMemoryWall #quantumComputing #AIConference #MITFutureTech

That's a wrap on Automation in the Labor Market and Economy: AI Automation with Generative World Models! Thank you @du_yilun #GenerativeAI #AIResearch #MITFutureTech #AIConference

A great reality check from @beena_ammanath - Success in AI deployment in an enterprise setting is driven by adoption - when accurate models are rolled out but not adopted, it's considered a failed project! #AIAdoption #EnterpriseAI #AIDeployment #MITFutureTech

Congratulations to @ProfDavidDeming on his new position: Danoff Dean of Harvard College @harvard! Fantastic presentation today at #MITFutureTech Conference "The Rapid Adoption of Generative AI", read it here: nber.org/papers/w32966

Does change in expertise (caused by task automation) affect change in wages? @davidautor says YES! Read the full paper on expertise here: nber.org/papers/w33941 📷#TaskAutomation #EconomicsofAutomation #AIEconomics #LabourResearch

Patrick Rich from @IBMResearch shares how foundation models accelerate scientific discovery: from experiments to algorithms. “We are at the dawn of a new algorithmic era powered by new representations of information” #foundationmodels #AIResearch #MITFutureTech

AI Adoption in Biology is accelerating new approaches to Drug Discovery via methods such as Cell Painting, as discussed by @shantanuXsingh from The Broad Institute. Advances in technology don't necessarily result in decreased costs in drug discovery however, a phenenom dubbed "Eroom's Law" - the opposite of Moore's law.

Excellent perspective from @KarianneBergen on educating the next generation of researchers in the context of #GenAI #AIConference #AIResearch #MITFutureTech
