    @daveholtzAn update: I’ll be on leave from Columbia for the 2026–2027 academic year to work full-time with the economic research team at @OpenAI, where I’ll be leading AGI economics research. Recent events have underscored how quickly the AI capability frontier is expanding. I’m excited to explore how economics can help us understand and shape the development of increasingly capable AI, and how the economy will evolve alongside it. I can’t think of a better group to work on these questions with than @RonnieChatterji and the rest of the team!
