Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

We show how a Schumpeterian process of creative destruction can induce rational, herd— behavior by entrepreneurs across diverse sectors of the economy that may look like it is fuelled by “animal spirits”. Consequently, a multi—sector economy, in which sector—specific, productivity improvements are made by independent, profit—seeking entrepreneurs, can exhibit regular booms, slowdowns and downturns as an inherent part of the long—run growth process. The cyclical equilibrium that we study has a higher average growth rate but lower welfare than the corresponding acyclical one. We find that across cycling economies, a negative relationship emerges between volatility and growth, and that the cycles generated by our model exhibit several features of actual business cycles.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
