A new edition of Progress Pulse is out! This month, we asked Americans about the future impact of AI on human flourishing. ?? We discovered Americans are split, with slightly more people viewing AI as a threat to flourishing. Check out our report for the full results: https://lnkd.in/gbY2z_UT ?? Progress Pulse is a new, regular survey from the Human Flourishing Lab and The Harris Poll exploring Americans' views on progress, human advancement, emerging technologies, and the future.

In our latest interview for Profectus Magazine, Archbridge President Gonzalo Schwarz talks with Nobel Prize-winning economist Edmund Phelps about his book "Mass Flourishing" and the essential ingredients for the good life. ?? Full article: https://lnkd.in/gpUw2Azx Here is an excerpt from Dr. Phelps: "The radical significance of the modern economy, or an economy sufficient in dynamism, lies in the nonmaterial benefits of meaningful work. The modern economy makes it possible for participants to rack up achievements, experience personal growth, and use their own judgment. Such satisfactions were out of reach of all but a tiny minority in traditional economies, including the mercantile economies of the commercial age, since not much out of the ordinary was achieved—other than swapping goods at greater and greater distances. People cannot flourish on material rewards alone, though they are also important. When work is meaningful it provides people with a sense of purpose." #Interview #NobelPrize #Economics #EconomicsOfFlourishing #HumanFlourishing #Flourishing #MassFlourishing #Dynamism #EconomicDynamism #BusinessDynamism
