Tariffs, taxes and wages in the age of artificial intelligence
构建了一个开放经济模型，分析人工智能技术进步如何影响工资不平等和技能溢价，并探讨关税和直接AI税在缓解AI对技能劳动负面冲击方面的有效性。
Abstract We formulate a model of an open economy with three final goods sectors, one of which uses a continuum of tasks as inputs. Skilled labor or artificial intelligence (AI), which is produced using skilled labor and capital, can conduct these tasks. We explore the effects of technical progress in AI, showing how AI competes with skilled labor in tasks and the consequences for wage inequality and the skill premium. We consider the effectiveness of trade tariffs and a direct AI tax to counter negative impacts of advancements in AI technology on the range of tasks performed by skilled labor.
