PwC: Romania has huge potential in the field of AI due to local talents in robotics, technology and IT - Business Review

According to the report, global GDP could be up to 14 percent higher in 2030 as a result of AI. This is the equivalent of an additional USD 15.7 trillion – making it the biggest commercial opportunity in today's fast changing economy. Of this, USD 6.6 trillion is likely to come from increased productivity and USD 9.1 trillion from consumption side effects, the report shows. Accordingly, growth will be driven by three factors: productivity gains from businesses automating processes (including use of robots and autonomous vehicles); productivity gains from businesses augmenting their existing labour force with AI technologies (assisted and augmented intelligence) and increased consumer demand resulting from the availability of personalised and/or higher-quality AI-enhanced products and services. Over the past decade, almost all aspects of how we work and how we live – from retail to manufacturing to healthcare – have become increasingly digitised, the report notes.
