How A.I. Could Reshape the Economic Geography of America
Published On Dec 26, 2024, 5:01 AM
A recent study suggests that as artificial intelligence (AI) technology becomes more widely adopted, midsize cities like Chattanooga, Tennessee, could benefit economically. These cities possess favorable attributes such as an educated workforce, affordable housing, and industries that are less likely to be disrupted by AI. The increasing use of generative AI has the potential to reshape the U.S. labor market and population distribution, drawing talent and businesses to these regions as they leverage AI for productivity gains.
