New discovery of the golden ratio in the economy

The golden ratio has been a subject of fascination since the days
of Greek philosophers like Pythagoras and Euclid. The ratio is
commonly found in nature, and humans have adapted it into
beautiful works of art. But the latest discovery of the golden
ratio may be the most surprising of all. Bert de Groot, Professor
of Economics at Erasmus University Rotterdam, conducted a
macroeconomic analysis to find that the golden ratio appears in
the cycles of the economy. How can that be possible? We speak
with Bert about his insights on this matter, discuss what it
tells us about the digital economy, and then turn the
conversation to this study's influence on Info-Tech's Tech Trends
2022 Report with designer Jess Leung.
