Keen eye, but nope. I would've put the sixth row but didn't want to take away from my fancy picture.

LG had a commercial monitor that they were looking at bringing to market that used lenticular panel like those cards in cereal boxes. Made the image appear up to 50cm in front of the 42" monitor. The trouble was that your eyes were bending to see the image and after 5~15 minutes your eyes began to hurt.

i just now learned of ai economic forecasting/modelling . this could/may/should lead to replacing the Central Bank w/ ai . incredible . further even the tax code could/may/should be composed by ai . all to maximize the +'s and minimize the -'s . incredible . a brave new world . we will soon be living in a sci-fi movie .

We need to find Neo to tell us what to do!
I don't think before I open my mouth, I like to be as surprised a everyone else.

What I see in (economic) AI is the bringing together of various techniques that have been in use since WWII (operations research). It's just more accessible without having to understand it.
The banks have been able to squeeze every service cent without "AI" up to this point. But credit card "flagging" has increased (I hear).

i ignorantly assume ai will find patterns in the economy no-one else can and adjust the levers available to the Central Bank as it deems necessary in real time . like wize re/ the tax code .

Right..... who is your supplier 
Seriously, the US tax code is a joke, and we (US citizens) keep electing idiots and lawyers. The vast majority of the tax code are favors to different supporters. How in the he double l is an AI going to fix that? We already have out of control micro-trading that easily manipulates the markets.... The people in charge call a reduction in spending a cut when in fact its still an overall increase. Of course, the feds just hired another 90,000 thugs to allegedly go after tax cheats. Right....
Yeah, not hopeful.

That would be an "answer to a question" ... AI (currently) doesn't pose "questions" (to itself), so it doesn't come up with anything new, by itself.

Yes, fantastic, in how much time compared to those algorithms?
In many cases speed and a moderate size reduction is a lot better than smaller but slower (and maybe by a lot, the paper doesn't say and I highly doubt AI is nearly as fast)

Amen.

Economies are far too complex to be modelled. Many economic models already exist, and none have good predictive value. Economies have far too many variables and no constants. The entire exercise is a reflection of "science envy" on the part of economists who think they can construct models in the same way as physicists. It is a total waste of time, made even worse by the fact that models can reflect deranged beliefs held by the model makers.

|

the far too many variables is precisely why i assume ai can be utilized .
|
|
|
|
|
The variables are largely based on human behavior, which is often unpredictable.
|
|
|
|
|
the unpredictability of human behavior is precisely why i believe ai can be utilized . isn't that what so called deep learning models do id est find patterns in vast data impossible for humans to process .

I suggest rather than starting at the Central Bank, let's pick a small town out of the way where the damage won't be catastrophic
I suppose you could run the AI in parallel to compare to existing controls.... might be interesting.
The thing is, hell has roads paved to it with good intentions. Going back to the early 80s, Reagan did "tax reform" and radically altered agricultural financing and destroyed the Savings and Loan industry, etc. The problem is that the government has far too much influence in the economy to make sense. Now you suggest a benevolent AI developed by government to make things better?

yes . ai can be trained on vast data and so possibly foresee the unforeseen consequences .

"possibly foresee...."
fair enough. Let's start small. Other than an over whelming amount of hype, doom and gloom, terminator, the jury is still so far out that I suggest very small steps rather than pushing the red button (with a sign over it "do not push") to see what happens.
A very long time ago, some government gave a contract to Georgia Tech to come up with a super duper algorithm to help with traffic flow in Atlanta. Atlanta suffers from combined interstates at the center of the city (stupid right there) and multiple large venues. So, the algorithm was developed to manage traffic flow by automatically controlling traffic lights to "efficiently manage egressing traffic." It was an unmitigated traffic Armageddon disaster. Turns out that the side streets full of cars got tired I've waiting and said, "elephant it..." and ran the red lights.
start small, iteratively develop it, keep people who have to pay the bills to control the process....

i am not surprised a human algorithm of a complex/incompletely understood phenomena developed in a previous era went haywire . i am surprised Phds failed so badly . in this era we now know about unforeseen consequences . to quote Donald Rumsfeld βThere are known knowns, things we know that we know; and there are known unknowns, things that we know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns, things we do not know we don't know.β in a previous era such a thing would not have been spoken .

It hits the same tipping point that ML (AI "content generation") stuff hits.
Once you have it creating most of what it is learning it isn't really creating or learning anymore.
