A new report from the International Monetary Fund has rated countries on their ability to immediately adopt artificial intelligence into their economies, once again urging policymakers to ensure the life-changing tech 'can benefit all.' 'Under most scenarios, AI will likely worsen overall inequality, a troubling trend that policymakers can work to prevent,' the IMF wrote in a blog post on its data.
With its new analysis, the IMF has suggested countries with more advanced economies should look to expand social safety nets, invest in training workers and prioritize AI innovation and integration. 'Coordinating with one another globally, these countries also should strengthen regulation to protect people from potential risks and abuses and build trust in AI,' the IMF said.
