IMF: AI Investment Supports Global Growth, Benefits Asian Economies
The International Monetary Fund's Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva stated that strong investment in artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure is sustaining global economic growth at around 3%, despite energy supply disruptions. This AI investment boom is benefiting Asian economies, including Thailand, by boosting demand for hardware and infrastructure. Advanced Asian economies could see growth increases of 0.5 to 1 percentage point, while emerging Asian economies might gain 0.2 to 0.8 percentage point. Georgieva also noted AI's broader impacts on jobs, education, and government revenues.
