IMF chief Kristalina Georgieva said Monday that AI investment and trade are keeping global growth near 3%. She said this holds despite an energy supply shock.
0.5 to 1 point: Georgieva's estimate of AI's growth lift in advanced Asia.
0.2 to 0.8 point: her estimated lift for emerging Asia.
60% of jobs in advanced economies are exposed to AI, the IMF says.
23% exposure in low-income countries, mainly because AI arrives there later.
Why it matters: Georgieva said young people entering the workforce face the most risk. The routine jobs that once started careers are disappearing.
Shanmugaratnam said U.S. demand for graduates fell for the first time in a century.
At the high end, Georgieva said, AI gains would more than offset losses from aging populations.
