Oct 22 (Reuters) - Artificial intelligence could boost global growth, but poorer countries, smaller companies and younger workers risk missing out unless access to power, digital infrastructure and skills improves, according to officials from the IMF and OECD.
The warning comes as massive investment in chips and AI infrastructure has helped support global growth and drive stock markets to record highs, while raising concerns about whether companies can generate sufficient returns on large spending commitments as borrowing costs rise.

10 月 22 日(路透社)——国际货币基金组织和经合组织官员表示,人工智能可以促进全球增长,但除非电力、数字基础设施和技能的获取得到改善,否则较贫穷的国家、较小的公司和年轻的工人可能会错失良机。
在这一警告出台之际,对芯片和人工智能基础设施的大规模投资帮助支撑了全球经济增长,并推动股市创下历史新高,但同时也引发了人们的担忧:随着借贷成本的上升,企业能否从巨额支出承诺中获得足够的回报。
