We develop a method to estimate producers' productivity beliefs in settings where output quantities and input prices … productivity beliefs. We estimate the model's parameters using data from a nationally representative survey of research …-active professors from all major fields of science. We find that the distribution of research productivity is highly skewed. Using these …

How large is the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on labor productivity and unemployment? This paper introduces a …-by-using technology. AI capability improves through machine learning from workers and in turn enhances their labor productivity, but …, our model predicts more than threefold improvements in productivity in some-AI steady state, alongside a long …
