Fed's Lisa Cook Highlights AI as Key Inflation Risk for 2027
Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook identified artificial intelligence (AI) as a significant inflationary risk for 2027, highlighting persistent supply shocks and geopolitical tensions, such as the Middle East conflict, as factors complicating inflation control. While Cook expects AI to boost productivity in the long term, she expressed concern about the timing of these gains and potential supply bottlenecks. Last month, she supported a Fed rate hike aimed at returning inflation to the 2% target, noting inflation remains above this goal.
