Fed chief calls AI the most consequential economic change of his lifetime

–

Neutral summary

Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh said on Friday, October 16, that artificial intelligence is “probably the most consequential change for the US and global economy” of his lifetime. He described the AI boom as a “positive shock” that will make the economy more productive and generate wealth, while cautioning that the path will be “bumpy.” Warsh said he supports the development of AI and noted it could improve data analysis and productivity, though he acknowledged it might fuel inflation in the short term. According to Challenges, Warsh offered no indication of the central bank’s next decisions as inflation picks up in the United States. Sud Ouest reports that the rise of AI and the massive investments it attracts have become the main driver of global economic and trade growth. Folha de S.Paulo also quoted Warsh as predicting a positive but “bumpy” impact.
