In this episode, we explore the IMF's analysis of AI’s dual impact on advanced and emerging economies, as well as its potential to reshape labor markets. We’ll discuss the IMF’s AI Preparedness Index, which assesses the readiness of 125 countries for AI integration, and highlight policy measures to harness AI’s benefits responsibly. Can we steer AI towards equitable growth? Join us as we unpack the strategies to ensure AI benefits humanity as a whole.
