TABE/CABE Webinar: LLM Applications for Applied Economists

LLM Applications for Applied Economists

The next speaker in the TABE / CABE New Tools of the Economists’ Trade series will be Dr. Kevin Bryan. Where can applied economists find valuable uses for LLMs today, both to improve existing workflows and to allow novel forms of analysis? How can common worries like hallucination, data privacy, and inaccurate source data be avoided? Kevin Bryan will walk through practical details here as well as show how to apply these techniques, in real time, during the webinar.

About the series: The digitization of our economies has led to an explosion of more granular, real-time data. Combined with rapid growth in new technologies, techniques, compute power, and generative AI tools, the tools of the economists’ trade are changing dramatically. This series is an opportunity to learn more about how economists and others are experimenting with these new datasets, techniques, and approaches. Danielle Goldfarb of TABE’s Board hosts the series.
