Thanks for the quick response Kevin. Haha, so in my original question I was going to say ‘with the exclusion of the work of Chad Jones’, i.e. the intersection of growth theory and EA/longtermism, which seem quite clear to me.
I would be interested in hearing about the other presenters: (Ben) Jones, Azoulay, Williams, Reenen, etc.
Here are two broad examples off the top of my head, but I’m sure there are many more. If I think of anything worth adding, I’ll do so.
Economic growth: See for example Chad Jones’ body of work, who will be giving one of the lectures at the bootcamp (here’s an excellent overview of some important papers).
Causes and consequences of AI development: see Phil Trammel’s overview on the consequences of transformative AI in economic models.
