Parker_Whitfill comments on Estimating the Substitutability between Compute and Cognitive Labor in AI Research

[Parker_Whitfill]

On 2), the condition you find makes sense, but aren’t you implicitly assuming an elasticity of substitution of 1 with Cobb-Douglas?

Yes, definitely. In general, I don’t have a great idea about what $Z(\cdot )$ looks like. The Cobb-Douglas case is just an example.
