Verified in the Social Science Space transcript dated September 3, 2024: Acemoglu says, "Now with AI, at least the ambition is a machine that can do everything, or at least pervasively," and later, "... I would create new incentives for blue-sky technologies that can create new tasks, new competencies." Both passages are attributed to him in the source URL, and the submitted quote is a verbatim composite with an ellipsis covering omitted intervening text.
