This week, Elon Musk—amidst his other duties of gutting United States federal government agencies as head of the “Department of Government Efficiency” (DOGE)—announced a hostile bid alongside a consortium of buyers to purchase control of OpenAI for $97.4 billion. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman vehemently replied that his company is not for sale.The artificial intelligence landscape is shifting rapidly. The week prior, American tech stocks plummeted in response to claims from Chinese company DeepSeek AI that its model had matched OpenAI's performance at a fraction of the cost. Days before that, President Donald Trump announced that OpenAI, Oracle, and Softbank would partner on an infrastructure project to power AI in the U.S. with an initial $100 billion investment. Altman himself is trying to pull off a much-touted plan to convert the nonprofit OpenAI into a for-profit entity, a development at the heart of his spat with Musk, who co-founded the startup.Bethany and Luigi discuss the implications of this changing landscape by reflecting on a prior Capitalisn't conversation with Luigi's former colleague Sendhil Mullainathan (now at MIT), who forecasted over a year ago that there would be no barriers to entry in AI. Does DeepSeek's success prove him right? How does the U.S. government's swift move to ban DeepSeek from government devices reflect how we should weigh national interests at the risk of hindering innovation and competition? Musk has the ear of Trump and a history of animosity with Altman over the direction of OpenAI. Does Musk's proposed hostile takeover signal that personal interests and relationships with American leadership will determine how AI develops in the U.S. from here on out? What does regulating AI in the collective interest look like, and can we escape a future where technology is consolidated in the hands of the wealthy few when billions of dollars in capital are required for its progress?Show Notes:On ProMarket, check out:Why Musk Is Right About OpenAI by Luigi Zingales, March 5, 2024Who Will Enforce AI's Social Purpose?

Are bailouts the new “trickle-down” economics? Have government debt and deficits caused capitalism's collapse—thus ending the American Dream?Ruchir Sharma is a well-known columnist for the Financial Times, the author of bestselling books Breakout Nations and The Rise and Fall of Nations, and an investment banker who worked as Morgan Stanley's head of emerging markets for 25 years. His new book, What Went Wrong With Capitalism, traces the roots of current disaffection with our capitalist economy to unabashed stimulus and too much government intervention. Take an example: Sharma writes that the United States federal government has introduced 3,000 new regulations in the last twenty years, and withdrawn just 20 over the same span. He likens the Federal Reserve's constant bailouts—under chairs appointed by presidents from both parties—to the opioid crisis, in which the solution created more problems than the pain it was designed to treat.Sharma joins Bethany and Luigi to explain how constant government intervention leads to inefficient “zombie” firms, higher property prices, housing shortages, massive inequality, and a historic government debt and deficit crisis. Together, they discuss the first step to a cure—a correct diagnosis of the problem—and how to approach the treatment without exacerbating the problems. In the process, they leave us with a renewed understanding of how “pro-business is not the same as pro-capitalism,” a distinction that Sharma says “continues to elude us.”Episode Notes:Link to submit papers for the Stigler Center 2025 Antitrust ConferenceRevisit “Is the Federal Reserve an Engine of Inequality?”, our previous episode on modern monetary theory or the claim that debt doesn't matter.Revisit “Capitalism After the Crisis,” Luigi's article for Foreign Affairs (2009), where he outlines the tensions between a pro-capitalism and a pro-business agenda. Also, check out ProMarket.org, our publication at the Stigler Center that he founded in 2016, with the mission of shedding light on this tension and how to ameliorate it.

Known for their persistence in the environment and human body, PFAS have raised significant public health concerns over the past few decades. Dr. Downs shares his journey through occupational medicine, toxicology, and public health, which uniquely positioned him to provide expertise on PFAS exposure, health risks, and ongoing regulatory efforts. Together, they delve into the origins, uses, and potential health effects of these ubiquitous compounds, while examining government policies, environmental impact, and strategies to reduce exposure.

Let's talk about government and Customer Experience. It might surprise you that government and Customer Experience have a tighter relationship than you think.  Many organizations, particularly in the private sector, recognize the importance of providing great experiences to keep customers satisfied and loyal. But should governments do the same for their citizens? Can a well-run government improve societal well-being by focusing on efficiency, transparency, and user-friendly services? In this episode, we explore the government's role in delivering experiences to citizens through essential services or regulatory actions that impact organizations and their customers. Historically, a poorly managed experience with the government has significant consequences (cue: the Boston Tea Party). But beyond extreme cases, day-to-day interactions with government agencies also influence our quality of life. We start by asking why government agencies should care about CX at all. Using real-world examples, such as the surprisingly smooth process of renewing a passport or the convenience of services like Global Entry at airports, we see how an efficient government improves employee morale and public satisfaction. Plus, efficient government departments can save money, attract top talent, and increase citizen trust. Beyond service delivery, governments play a vital role in regulating experiences for private companies. Markets can become exploitative without proper regulations, leaving customers vulnerable to poor practices. We look at examples of beneficial regulations, like the Truth in Lending Act, which protects consumers from misleading financial products, and the Americans with Disabilities Act, which ensures accessibility for all.  However, regulation is a delicate balance. Too little oversight can lead to exploitation, while too much can stifle competition and innovation. Some laws—like those that mandate thousands of training hours for hairstylists or forbid self-service gas stations—seem overly restrictive and detrimental to the customer experience. Finding a middle ground that protects consumers without creating unnecessary barriers is key. Join us as we discuss governments' critical role in shaping experiences and why every government, like a business, should aim to improve the CX it delivers to its citizens. More Key Moments in the Discussion:  How efficient government services influence national life satisfaction. The impact of "bad profits" in the financial sector and their regulatory solutions. Why governments can't afford to ignore inefficiency for long. Examples of overregulation stifling innovation in U.S. states. The link between government CX and economic growth. How the White House's consumer protection initiatives aim to improve daily life.

"Elections 2024 are over, most thankfully!The campaigns for elections began so early and lasted so long that Americans experienced:ELECTION FATIGUE""And burnout, and even despair. It seemed like the election season would never end.But it did, and Americans resoundingly and clearly voted Donald Trump as President of the United States and JD Vance as Vice President. Trump and Vance won a clear majority of the popular vote and a resounding majority of the electoral college vote, both.Now comes four years, again, of Donald Trump in office, January 2025 through January 2029. WE THE PEOPLE experienced four years of Trump, 2017-2021. His record is clear. Now the question becomes:WHAT KIND OF PRESIDENCY WILL DONALD J. TRUMP PRODUCE FOR AMERICA IN HIS NEXT AND LAST FOUR YEARS AS PRESIDENT?""Many think Trump has changed, and for the better. Many believe that Trump has become more conciliatory, considerate of other people, cooperative, even with those hostile to him, in order to make certain that he does what is right for America. May it be so. The main objective of a new Trump administration will be to reverse what many feel is the disastrous policies of Biden-Harris and the Democrats in the last four years. WOKE has gone wild. Progressives have ruled the day. Trump intends to reverse all of that and:MAGA – MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!That is, restore American values as of old, become once again a constitutional country with deep respect for the rule of law. Trump has promised that in this next presidency, he will:DRAIN THE SWAMP.""And he pledges to do a far better job of draining and dredging the Washington political swamp.WE THE PEOPLE should hold him to those promises. We should watch, and pray, and stand up and be heard if Trump breaks any of these promises.THE ECONOMY. Trump has promised to curb and control inflation. Prices are out of control. We should hold him to that promise.TAXES. Trump has promised to lower and control taxation. He has also promised to de-politicize the INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE (IRS). That organization, constructed to be objective, has become a weapon when needed by the progressives in Washington. That organization needs to be restructured top to bottom. WE THE PEOPLE must hold Trump to that promise.GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS. Trump has promised a massive de-regulation clean-up in Washington and, like Ronald Reagan of old, to get government off the backs of we the people. We must hold Donald J. Trump to that promise.EDUCATION. Trump has promised to do away with the Department of Education. It has become weaponized, politicized, and aggressively progressive. We must, we must hold Trump to that promise.THE BORDER. Trump has pledged to shut down the border. He has emphatically promised to stop the ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION. We must hold our new president to that promise without exception. It is just simply unbelievable that the Biden administration could operate in such illegal fashion, ignoring the constitution, endangering the economy, our cities, and so many of our citizens by forcing literally millions of illegal immigrants on them.
