NO.1題目1

Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) have the potential to affect growth, inequality, productivity, innovation, and employment. OpenAI’s ChatGPT, in particular, has greatly increased public awareness about the significance of AI and its implications for the future. What impact will the development of AI have on economic inequality, the composition of the workforce, and economic output as a whole? How can nations prepare for the micro and macroeconomic changes brought about by AI?

人工智能（AI）的進步有可能影響經濟增長、不平等、生產力、創新和就業。尤其是OpenAI 的ChatGPT，它大大提高了公眾對人工智能意義及其對未來影響的認識。人工智能的發展會對經濟不平等、勞動力構成和整體經濟產出產生什么影響？各國應如何為人工智能帶來的微/宏觀經濟變化做好準備？

NO.2題目2

Measuring national and global economic activity allows us to understand how economies change in size and structure—how they grow and contract. In addition to Gross Domestic Product (GDP), government budgets, and the money supply, alternatives like the Human Development Index (HDI) and Gross National Income (GNI) are used to assess economic progress. What are the advantages of our current economic indices, including GDP, HDI, GNI, government budgets, and the money supply, and in what areas are they lacking? Which of these indices do you find most helpful, and how can we enhance or combine them to improve our understanding of economic measurement?

通過衡量國家和全球經濟活動，我們可以了解經濟體在規模和結構上的變化——它們是如何增長和收縮的。除國民生產總值（GDP）、政府預算和貨幣供應量之外，人類發展指數（HDI）和國民總收入（GNI）等其他指數也被用來評估經濟進步。我們目前所用經濟指數，包括國民生產總值、人類發展指數、國民總收入、政府預算和貨幣供應量，這些指數在評估時有哪些優勢？您認為哪些最有幫助？我們如何加強或結合這些指數來提高我們對經濟衡量的理解？

NO.3題目3

Proponents of income redistribution support the idea that redistribution policies will increase economic stability and give more opportunities to the less wealthy. Others, however, are more skeptical and believe it could have negative consequences for economic growth. Current methods of redistribution include taxation, welfare, public services, and other monetary policies. What strategies for income redistribution should the U.S. adopt from other countries? What economic impacts could a wealth tax or super millionaire tax have? What type of redistribution is most effective and feasible? What would be the impacts of the U.S. enacting universal basic income? Discuss the implications of any of these issues and feel free to expand on other areas of economic redistribution.

收入再分配的支持者認為，再分配政策將提高經濟穩定性，并為不太富裕的人提供更多機會。但也有人持懷疑態度，認為這可能對經濟增長產生負面影響。目前的再分配方法包括稅收、福利、公共服務和其他貨幣政策。美國應借鑒其他國家的哪些收入再分配策略？財富稅或超級百萬富翁稅會對經濟產生什么影響？哪種類型的再分配最有效、可行？美國頒布全民基本收入法案會產生哪些影響？討論其中任何一個問題的影響，并隨意擴展到經濟再分配的其他領域。

NO.4題目4

As the United States weighs the impacts of China’s rise to global prominence, economics and national security have become increasingly intertwined. As a result, the United States government has imposed both tariffs and investment restrictions on China to limit the nation’s access to both US markets and intellectual property (specifically in sensitive industries such as semiconductors). What are the economic implications of these policies for United States firms, consumers, and workers? Discuss the most important perspectives of the US-China trade war and provide suggestions on how both countries can manage the prospect of a changing economic order.

在美國權衡中國崛起對全球的影響時，經濟和國家安全日益交織在一起。因此，美國政府對中國實施了關稅和投資限制，以限制中國進入美國市場和知識產權領域（特別是半導體等敏感行業）。這些政策對美國公司、消費者和工人有什么經濟影響？討論你對中美貿易戰的主要觀點，并就兩國如何管理不斷變化的經濟秩序前景提出建議。
