Glory Days of Modeling: Dan Eichelsdoerfer on Building Macrocosm
Manage episode 483626829 series 3593345
In a world full of linear thinking, Dan Eichelsdoerfer is building a company grounded in complexity. In this episode, Dan joins The Flux to discuss why agent-based models are finally ready for prime time and how Macrocosm is creating tools to simulate economic and energy systems with more nuance, flexibility, and realism than ever before.
Dan talks about the interdisciplinary “glory days” of modeling inside Macrocosm, where economists, physicists, and data scientists come together to break old paradigms and challenge assumptions. From applying agent-based models to simulate energy markets to envisioning what sustainable economics might actually look like, this is a masterclass in thinking differently to make better decisions.
