The Hardware-Software Model: A New Conceptual Framework of Production, R&D, and Growth with AI
(2019-02)The article proposes a new conceptual framework for capturing production, R&D, and economic growth in aggregative models which extend their horizon into the digital era. Two key factors of production are considered: hardware, ... -
Automation, Partial and Full
(2020-04)When some steps of a complex, multi-step task are automated, the demand for human work in the remaining complementary sub-tasks goes up. In contrast, when the task is fully automated, the demand for human work declines. ... -

Are Ideas Really Getting Harder To Find? R&D Capital and the Idea Production Function
(2022-02)We supplement the 'Idea Production Function' (IPF) with measures of R&D capital. We construct a time series of R&D capital stock in the US (1968-2019) based on cumulated R&D investment. We estimate the IPF with patent ... -
R&D Capital : An Engine of Growth
(2022-05-10)Research and development (R&D) requires not only skilled research work, but also dedicated machinery and equipment: R&D capital. In this paper I demonstrate that R&D, producing labor-augmenting ideas, and the accumulation ... -
Hardware and Software over the Course of Long-Run Growth: Theory and Evidence
(2023-09)Output is generated through purposefully initiated physical action. Production needs energy and information, provided by respective factors: hardware (“brawn”), including physical labor and physical capital, and software ... -
Causal analysis of demand-side economic growth sources using agent-based modelling
(2026-01)Research on economic growth has been focused predominantly on production and innovation. The issue of how the funds of consumers and firms grow enough to enable the growth of nominal and real sales has been clouded either ...
