'Could AI be a game changer for economics and the economy? This is the main question that this book examines in depth. The authors have managed to keep the language accessible to various audiences without forgetting technical rigor. The analysis of AI, from both the consumer and producer sides, points out possible ways for humanity to take advantage of the new opportunities opened up by this new technology while avoiding its risks.' Tiago Neves Sequeira, Professor of Economics, University of Coimbra 'This book presents a very thorough discussion of the connections between artificial intelligence and the economy, with a refreshing forward-looking perspective. It covers fundamentals, important implications of digital technologies on societal aspects, innovation, and policy. I completely agree with the authors' statement '[big data] can better inform policy makers for a positive impact on their actions and citizens' well-being,' and strongly recommend this piece to help navigate a future enhanced by artificial intelligence.' Ricardo Vinuesa, Associate Professor at KTH Royal Institute of Technology
