The first chief economist at OpenAI is Aaron Chatterji. He was previously the chief economist at the Commerce Department under President Joe Biden and a senior economist on President Barack Obama’s Council of Economic Advisers.
Since Chatterji is also a professor of business and public policy at Duke, he will be in charge of research at OpenAI that looks at how AI might affect job chances and economic growth.
Notably, Chatterji helped make sure that the 2022 CHIPS Act was carried out by the Biden administration. This law gave the U.S. government about $280 billion to fund the development of computer chips. The fact that he knows a lot about the project and has government ties could help OpenAI with its own chip design work.

Chatterji wasn’t the only famous person that OpenAI hired today. The company also named Scott Schools as its new top compliance officer. Schools was previously an associate deputy attorney general and Uber’s compliance head. The company said he will work with the board and teams across the company to make sure he follows the law and acts in an ethical way.
