Can the Nexus of Scaling Laws Coupled with Constant or Variable Elasticity of Substitution Predict AI and Other Technology Adoption?
Emergent technologies such as solar power, electric vehicles, and artificial intelligence (AI) often exhibit exponential or power function price declines and various ``S-curves'' of adoption. We show that under CES and VES utility, such price and adoption curves are functionally linked. When price declines follow Moore's, Wright's and AI scaling "Laws,'' the S-curve of adoption is Logistic or Log-Logistic whose slope depends on the interaction between an experience parameter and the elasticity of substitution between the incumbent and emergent good. These functional relations can serve as a building block for more complex models and guide empirical specifications of technology adoption.
