Been thinking about this—the guy Silicon Valley turns to for economic insight, right? Whole thing's getting wild now. His obsession with learning and understanding markets used to be his edge. But here we are, AI getting smarter every week, processing data faster than any human economist ever could. So what's the play? Does that intellectual hunger still count for something when machines can crunch numbers in milliseconds? Or is the real value shift happening somewhere else entirely—maybe in asking the right questions instead of just analyzing data? The crypto market's learning this lesson real quick too. Makes you wonder what economics actually looks like in the next decade.

To be honest, the question is well-asked, but the answers are already on the chain. When it comes to data analysis, AI indeed outperforms humans, but in terms of question design and trend sensing, machines are always just tools. People in the crypto circle have already understood that the era of making money solely through data is over.

Honestly, AI is really starting to threaten economists' jobs haha, but the problem is that asking the right questions is more important than doing the math. The crypto community has understood this long ago.

To be honest, the data analysis methods have long been overtaken by AI. Now, it's all about the ability to ask the right questions.

AI responds in seconds, and humans' advantage is really getting smaller and smaller...

ngl, this whole "human economist vs AI" thing smells like a honeypot for lazy thinking. DYOR before accepting that narrative. machines crunching data ≠ understanding market incentives, exploit vectors are everywhere in that logic.

To be honest, this sense of anxiety has been spreading in Web3 for a long time. The traditional data analysis approach is no longer popular; those who truly succeed are those who can sense market shifts—not by crunching spreadsheets, but by intuition and asking the right questions. Economists also need to learn how to turn around.
