Artificial Intelligence and Productivity
Artificial intelligence (AI) stands as a beacon of hope for boosting sluggish productivity growth in OECD countries. A recent publication reveals vital insights for policymakers, business leaders, and researchers on how to effectively adopt AI in enterprises. The analysis is rooted in a new, policy-oriented survey conducted across the G7 countries and Brazil, offering a wealth of data complemented by interviews with industry representatives.
This comprehensive examination identifies significant barriers to AI adoption and proposes actionable solutions. Key areas of focus include training and education, qualification frameworks, and the establishment of public-private research partnerships. Furthermore, the role of public institutions in facilitating the diffusion of digital technologies, including AI, is critically analyzed. The book emphasizes the urgent need for improved policy evaluation and increased international comparability in AI surveys, particularly regarding the evolving landscape of generative AI in business.
