about this room

Professor Luis Garicano at the LSE School of Public Policy on Messy Jobs, which he co-authored, and what AI is doing to work, careers and the wider economy.

why go

Garicano brings an economist's read rather than a technologist's, and the LSE public-policy framing pushes the conversation towards labour markets and policy rather than tooling. He is also speaking at London Business School on 22 October; this is the policy-weighted version of the same material, so choose by which angle you want. Best for policy people, and anyone planning headcount against an AI roadmap.
