IMF Flags AI Dependence

BangkokAI goods lifted 2023-25 trade growth to 8.3%, IMF says.

AI spending cushioned the world economy from war-driven energy price shocks, the IMF said.

Without AI-related products, trade growth would be closer to 4.6%, chief economist Silvana Tenreyro said.

US Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh warned the path ahead is “likely to be a very bumpy one.”
