Lots of questions about AI in the editorial process these days. Thank you, Ray, for sharing the reviewer guidance. Bottomline, you can use AI tools, but we are looking for your judgment, not that of AI. We appreciate it if you let us know if/how you used AI.

Ray Fisman@rfisman.bsky.social · 7mo ago

During a recent seminar visit, a number of people asked about use of AI in the refereeing process. Every AEA journal includes the following in the email you get after agreeing to do a review. If you have any doubts about what constitutes appropriate use, please ask!

My first time as a finalist. Hopefully not the last. @nihcm.bsky.social @ubuffaloecon.bsky.social @ubartsandsciences.bsky.social @ubuffalo.bsky.social

One last (sobering) update on the #EconJobMarket before the winter holidays; data as of 2025-12-14. In terms of # of job listings on Job Openings for Economists (JOE), this is the worst job mkt in recent yrs for PhD Economists. # jobs down 20% from last yr, even 18.9% lower than during COVID (2020).

They misheard you. They thought you said “beer effects”.

Joshua Goodman@joshua-goodman.com · 2y ago

I asked my students what topic in our economics of education class was most important for education policy. Nearly all of them chose "peer effects". (Perhaps reflecting my own evolution from ignoring peer effects to thinking they explain a huge fraction of education phenomena.)

Me, giving PhD students advice when something in their program or analysis isn’t working.

Some of the most important lottery anomalies from the behavioral risk literature (e.g., probability weighting and loss aversion) actually have nothing to do with risk. They also arise in perfectly deterministic settings. Lead article in the latest AER issue: www.aeaweb.org/articles?id=...
