Ethan Mollick's AI Forecast for 2026: Trends to Watch

December 19, 2025 10:00 am

Latest

AI could be the help the economy desperately needs, not the threat economists fear. 

Joao Gomes, Professor of Finance and Vice Dean of Research at the Wharton School, explains why demographics, productivity, and the US competition with China make the AI boom too important to slow down. He argues that being first to build the dominant AI platforms could have enormous economic consequences.

AI Boom: Less Fear, More Opportunity

September 4, 2026 11:05 am

ABOUT THE EPISODE
The AI boom could transform the economy, but could the way it is being financed create the next major financial crisis?

Joao Gomes, Wharton Professor of Finance and Senior Vice Dean of Research, Centers, and Academic Initiatives, argues that the Federal Reserve needs to look beyond inflation and pay much closer attention to the financial risks building around AI investment.

Gomes explains the parallels with the housing crisis and internet boom, the growing role of private credit, and why the Fed needs to rethink how it monitors financial stability.
