I like a lot of Imagine Dragons’ songs and if I were to recommend one of them, “Wrecked” from 2021 would be the one. This song is very emotional yet demonstrates the band’s versatile musical chops, with the song transitioning from acoustic verses to the rock chorus and the choral-like falsetto vocals of the pre-chorus and outro.

Donald Trump’s legal team is making an 11th-hour attempt to block a court order
that would grant the BBC access to the president’s financial records,
as part of his multibillion-dollar lawsuit against the British broadcaster.
Trump claims that the BBC’s 2024 documentary on the January 6 attacks have damaged the president’s business interests.
In July, a Miami-based judge ruled that the president would have to start handing over detailed financial records to the BBC b…

Organizational Technology Ladders: Remote Work and Generative AI Adoption

Abstract: This study proposes that firms move along an "organizational technology ladder": adopting one technology transforms hiring and work processes and builds skills and organizational capital that change the cost of adopting subsequent technologies. I study how firms' adoption of remote work technology during the COVID-19 period shaped later uptake of generative AI. Using U.S. job-posting data and an instrumental-variables strategy based on predicted differences in labor-market pressure to offer remote work, I estimate that a 10 percentage point increase in remote hiring in 2021-2022 increases the share of job postings mentioning generative AI in 2023-2024 by 0.4 percentage points across firms and 0.7 percentage points across occupations within firms. I provide evidence on mechanisms consistent with a technology-ladder channel: remote work adoption shifts hiring toward technical and managerial capabilities that predict faster conversion of generative AI exposure into adoption. Firms with return-to-office mandates---interpreted as revealing low remote productivity---exhibit a substantially larger response of generative AI adoption to remote work, consistent with an organizational frictions channel.
