Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

While massive investment in chips and AI infrastructure has supported global growth, the IMF estimates effective AI adoption could add up to 0.5% to annual global growth over the medium term. However, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development notes that workplace use of AI is currently limited in core business functions.
