We're excited to be hosting CODE@MIT again this fall!

We invite a mix of work involving experimentation — methods, cool experiments, industry reports, etc.

Look for more info later on this year's invited speakers.
I'm hiring an economics predoc at @columbiasipa.bsky.social, generally on applied micro projects, but with a large focus on the impacts of AI on economic outcomes using large-scale field experiments with many companies.

Interesting: Perhaps you know that Thomas Carlyle coined "the dismal science" for Economics in a speech fighting against slave emancipation.

I didn't realize he was also anti technology: "Our true Deity is Mechanism. It has subdued external Nature for us, and we think it will do all other things."
