In this week's AI Hustlers we will be discussing Enrico Moretti's book "The New Geography of Jobs" and what Moretti's view is about innovation hubs. We'll chat about Moretti's criteria for what makes a successful innovation hub and see how Seattle matches up.
But it won't just be about the big picture. We want to hear from you. What's your experience living in Seattle, a city often labeled as an innovation hub? Do you see it? Feel it? Agree with it? This meetup is all about sharing stories, experiences, and opinions.
We'll also dive into discussions about how the pandemic and AI advancements might be reshaping these ideas.
