Nobel Economics Prize Winners Offer Lessons from History

This year's Nobel economics prize winners provide valuable insights and warnings from history, particularly relevant in today's economy threatened by AI disruption.

Three professors, Joel Mokyr, Philippe Aghion, and Peter Howitt, will share the Nobel memorial prize in economics for their work on how innovation, including technology, drives economic growth.

Their work serves as a warning that history shows growth isn't inevitable, and it has to be nurtured.

Marketplace senior economics contributor Chris Farrell reviewed the winners' work and discussed it with "Marketplace Morning Report" host David Brancaccio.
