Join us at our Forum for Economic Dialogue in which we will uncover the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on economics. There are numerous concerns regarding the application of AI. However, the hopes placed in AI are just as significant. Our event aims to look beyond the hype surrounding AI and move away from theoretical debates, such as the takeover of world domination by machines, and instead focus on the facts. How is AI promoting economic growth and who will benefit most from it? Does AI have the potential to increase prosperity and reduce inequalities? What role will practical applications of AI play in shaping business strategies and/or economic policies? What are the long-term economic implications of AI-driven automation for global labor markets? We look forward to lively discussions and an engaging exchange with you.

Forum for Economic Dialogue:
AI Unleashed: Economic Realities Beyond the Hype"
organised by UBS Center in association with CEPR. The event will explore how #AI is shaping the #economy, driving #growth, & impacting #labourmarkets
