[AI Investment Boom Continues to Empower the Economy, Global Growth Expected to Slow to 2.9% Next Year] ⑴ On Tuesday, institutional sources indicated that OECD Secretary-General Coleman stated that the AI investment boom driving global economic growth is expected to continue and bring longer-term benefits. Earlier this month, the organization raised its growth forecasts for several major economies, including the US, noting that technology spending has provided support in the face of trade uncertainty. ⑵ Coleman mentioned that in the medium to long term, the accelerated adoption and application of AI in the economic field will have a significant positive impact on productivity growth. ⑶ However, the OECD expects global economic growth to slow from 3.2% in 2025 to 2.9% next year, with trade headwinds potentially intensifying. ⑷ Coleman pointed out that there are currently several downside risks: the impact of tariffs has not yet fully materialized, trade uncertainty persists, and there are a series of other structural pressures. ⑸ From a trend perspective, continued AI investment may partially offset the negative impact of trade headwinds, but the actual impact of tariffs and structural pressures on economic growth needs to be monitored in the future.
