微软发布诺贝尔经济学奖得主 Daron Acemoglu 的悲观 AI 预测：十年 GDP 仅增 1.5%
Microsoft publishes Nobel economist's bearish AI forecast of just 1.5% GDP growth over a decade
微软发布了诺贝尔经济学奖得主 Daron Acemoglu 对 AI 的悲观预测：AI 将在十年内推动 GDP 增长约 1.5%，最多替代 5% 的工作岗位，远低于部分 AI 实验室的预期。他认为瓶颈在于人性——企业需重新分配任务、提升员工技能并重组流程，这一过程可能比电气化耗时更长，更大的模型无法解决该问题。他还认为，增强人类技能的 AI 在生产力上会胜过完全自动化。

Microsoft published a pretty bearish take on AI from Nobel Prize-winning economist Daron Acemoglu. He predicts AI will boost GDP by about 1.5 percent over ten years and replace at most five percent of jobs, far less than some AI labs forecast . He admits the pace of AI development is hard to predict.
The bottleneck, Acemoglu says, is human nature. Companies have to reassign tasks, upskill workers, and restructure before productivity gains kick in , a process that could drag on longer than electrification did. Bigger models won't fix that. What's missing are easy-to-deploy apps that change how things get made, he says.
AI that extends human skills will beat full automation on productivity, he argues, since even 99 percent accuracy often isn't enough once you factor in last-mile problems and real user needs. For Microsoft, that's a convenient thesis. The company can bolt AI onto existing products without betting on large-scale automation. The article ran in Microsoft's eccentric corporate blog "The Humanist Review of AI," where authors sign their pieces by hand.
