In a simple model of AI-aided growth, intelligence and Polanyi knowledge are mostly complements, with fairly limited substitutability in producing output.

AI and jobs Whether AI displaces human work, which jobs go first, and what replaces them.

What Tyler Cowen actually said

  1. Tyler Cowen Economist at George Mason University
    In the model, intelligence and Polanyi knowledge combine to produce output. Substitutability is fairly limited. For instance, if you have problems of norms in your office, a mere dose of AI-drenched technocratic knowledge does not usually solve those problems. Sometimes it even can make those problems worse, by empowering rent-seekers further. Intelligence and Polanyi knowledge are not quite Leontief complements, but they are mostly complements.
