Description
Artificial Intelligence (AI) holds the promise of radically transforming economies and changing how people work and firms organise their production. To harness the opportunities brought by AI and design public policies aimed at fostering an inclusive digital transformation, it is crucial to assess AI’s potential and the current state of AI's diffusion in firms and sectors.
In this context, the session will first discuss key insights from new OECD work on the topic. This session will be then dedicated to a panel discussion where leading academics and practitioners will discuss recent evidence and challenges related to AI measurement and its diffusion across firms and sectors. They will explore the role of skills, other digital technologies and intangibles, and discuss the role of public policy in fostering AI uptake and its returns.
