A scenario presented by Philip Lane shows how AI could lift euro area output 3.8% above baseline in 2030 - Informat.ro

Euro area output could be 3.8% above baseline in 2030 if productivity in IT services increased by 30% simultaneously worldwide, according to a simulation presented by Philip Lane, a member of the Executive Board of the European Central Bank. The scenario, presented on October 30 in San Francisco, also shows the costs of reallocating activity, with lower employment in IT even as real wages increased across several occupational groups.
