Some reports by economists on Fable: > @joshgans: "While previous AI models were enthusiastic but slightly incompetent PhD students, this is something more; maybe along the lines of a future Nobel prize winner as a PhD student." > Vincent Grégoire (@CodesFinance): "[Fable]'s report was an eye-opener. It actually managed to find closed-form solutions to a few of the proofs that all the previous models only managed to solve numerically. This is not easy math. ... [It also] identified many issues that Opus, Codex, Coarse, and Refine (and me) had missed. ... Again, all it took was one prompt for Fable to update everything." - Actual output Vincent got from Fable: github.com/fintech-research/… - Vincent's article: vincent.codes.finance/posts/… - Josh's article: joshuagans.substack.com/p/th…

Relatively late to the game, but happy to attest to the excellence of Refine in identifying errors and inconsistencies. Have been running every working paper through it for several months and it is enormously useful.

I am super excited to share a new AI tool, Refine. Refine thoroughly studies research papers like a referee and finds issues with correctness, clarity, and consistency. In my own papers, it regularly catches problems that my coauthors and I missed. 1/

Der deutsche Ordoliberalismus ist nicht innovationsfeindlich. Er sieht allerdings private Akteure als Träger von Innovation an, nicht den Staat. In diesem Punkt liegen die alten Ordos sehr nah beim modernen ökonomischen Mainstream. /cc @schnellenbachj @fuecks @Lars_Feld @OrdoliberalBG
Replying to @michaelxpettis
Der deutsche Ordoliberalismus ist strukturell innovationsfeindlich — nicht weil er Markt will, sondern weil er aktive Gestaltung verhindert. Fraunhofer forscht. Niemand baut. (Mazzucato, „The Entrepreneurial State", 2013)

Switzerland is rich partly because it is a hub for international business. It will struggle to remain so if it is closed to foreign brains economist.com/leaders/2026/0…

Herzlichen Dank an @ConstSchreiber für die Einladung, in seinem Podcast über #WohlstandFürJunge zu sprechen. Es ging um #Auswandern aus Deutschland, das Unbehagen der #Jugend und #Resilienz-Therapien in der Wirtschaftspolitik: youtube.com/watch?v=KWJ5BZYC…

Thanks @JonSteinsson - Stiglitz is imposing a huge negative externality on the profession - literally squandering one of the best well-deserved reputations in economics for short run punditry gains
I don't know what Piketty, Stiglitz, and co. are smoking. Global poverty rates have never been lower. Progress on basic global health and wellbeing measures has been amazing over the past few decades. "End of the road"?!? Come again!?! theguardian.com/commentisfre…

🚨New working paper🚨 Who actually bears the burden of digital service taxes (DSTs)? Governments introduced them to tax large digital firms like Amazon, but as revenue-based taxes they might be passed on. In a new paper with Rohit Muddasani, we study the that. A 🧵 1/7

Post-war Keynesianism in Germany and Western Europe – my book review now out in EJHET: “The present volume is a welcome addition to the literature on the reception and influence of Keynes, primarily in the German-speaking world. The detailed focus on the work and lives of Keynesians - i.e., individual people - makes the book an ideal companion to existing studies tracing the broader dissemination of Keynesian ideas and policies” tandfonline.com/doi/epdf/10.…

Die Verantwortung der Presse und der Wissenschaft sind darin analog, Bürgerinnen und Bürger bestmöglich zu informieren, sodass sie Entscheidungen über das Zusammenleben möglichst fundiert treffen. Und wie @dnientiedt es wunderbar sagt: Mit der Reichweite kommt die Verantwortung.
Replying to @OliverBWeber
Sehe nicht, wie das impliziert wäre. Aber mit großer Reichweite kommt die Verantwortung, die Bürger ernsthaft über wirtschaftliche und politische Optionen zu informieren

Man staunt! Beitrag im Feuilleton der @FAZ_NET, der grundlegende ökonomische Reformen für politisch "zu gefährlich" ansieht - wegen #AfD. Das ist der politische Offenbarungseid: kein Aufbruch, kein Konzept, kein Mut. So rutscht 🇩🇪 weiter in seinen Niedergang. @fdp @_MartinHagen

One thing that makes Quinn Slobodian's distortion of Mises so personally frustrating is that reading Mises in my teens introduced me to, and strongly cemented my belief in, explicit and radical cosmopolitanism.
