Professor Shubha Ghosh Writes on Housing Prices and Artificial Intelligence

Crandall Melvin Professor of Law Shubha Ghosh contributed the article “The Rent IS Too High: Blame Zoning and Supply Caps, Not Rental Apps” to the Daily Economy.

The article examines the reasons contributing to the high cost of housing and why seeking to stifle the use of artificial intelligence (AI) pricing tools will not address the cost of housing.

Ghosh writes, “Moreover, this crackdown on AI rent tools is not a principled stand against monopoly or collusion. It’s a case of political theater — an attempt to externalize blame for inflation that was caused by governments and central banks themselves.”
