The value of social skills at work if AI can bargain for people
A Justified Posteriors episode features Harvard College undergraduate dean and labor economist David Deming discussing how AI that communicates and bargains for people might change the value of social skills.
TLDR
The Justified Posteriors episode description says the conversation draws on Deming’s research into how social skills reduce coordination costs. It also considers a future in which AI can communicate and bargain on people’s behalf. Deming thinks cheaper routine communication would leave more time to debate questions with no right answer.
