Description
This week is the October edition of Incentives & Instincts, a recurring series in which Justin speaks with economist and friend Bryce Ward about some of the broader challenges facing our society. Last month, they pondered the purpose of college in a world with AI. To follow up on that conversation, Justin invited his friend and colleague, David Firth, professor of Management Information Systems, to join I&I this month.
In this conversation, David emphasizes the importance of domain expertise, how motivation is the key to success in an AI-driven world and how community might be the main incentive of higher education.
