Economist urges caution on AI job impact; UAE bets big on AI infrastructure

Nobel laureate economist Daron Acemoglu maintains a cautious stance on AI's impact on employment, arguing that AI agents are more likely to augment specific tasks rather than replace entire jobs due to the complexity and varied nature of human work. Meanwhile, major AI labs like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google DeepMind are actively hiring economists to research AI's economic implications and address growing public skepticism about job displacement. Separately, the UAE is making significant investments in AI infrastructure, leveraging its oil wealth to fund data centers and energy production, positioning itself as a key player in the global AI economy.
