Answer:
Remain unchanged
Confidence level:
Confident
Comment:
While I do not expect AI to have much effect on the overall level of unemployment, I do expect it to lead to substantial changes in the nature of jobs, with an increase in both job destruction and job creation. And there will be an important role for policy to assist those who find their jobs disappearing retrain and find new jobs.
Question 1: What will be the implications of recent developments in AI on global economic growth, as they mature over the upcoming decade?
The CFM surveys informs the public about the views held by prominent economists based in Europe on important macroeconomic and public policy questions. Some surveys focus specifically on the UK economy (as the CFM is a UK research centre), but surveys can in principle focus on any macroeconomic question for any region. The surveys shed light on the extent to which there is agreement or disagreement among these experts. An important motivation for the survey is to give a more comprehensive overview of the beliefs held by economists and in particular to include the views of those economists whose opinions are not frequently heard in public debates.
Questions mainly focus on macroeconomic and public policy topics. Although there are some questions that focus specifically on the UK economy, the setup of the survey is much broader and considers questions related to other countries/regions and also considers questions not tied to a specific economy.
The surveys are done in collaboration with the Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR).
