According to the new UN Trade and Developme Conference (UNCTAD), the global artificial ielligence market will reach $ 1.5 trillion by year, but this rapid growth may iensify global inequality.
In its latest report, the United Nations Trade and Developme Organization (UAD) has spoken of a future in which artificial ielligence becomes the domina technology of the world. According to the report, the global market value of artificial ielligence will rise from $ 5 billion a year, with a stunning growth, up to $ 1.5 trillion by year 2; That is, 5 times increase in a decade.
According to Anktad, the share of artificial ielligence from the advanced technology market will reach 2 % to 5 % and will take the first place among emerging technologies.
The global gap is being deepened
While the rate of growth of artificial ielligence is staggering, its focus on developing a few large and few iernational companies can lead to an increase in the global digital gap. Couries such as the US and China are making the most of this technological revolution due to the more skilled manpower and more advanced technological infrastructure.
In year 2, only 5 companies, mainly from the US and China, were responsible for 5 % of all research and developme investmes in the field of artificial ielligence. Also, the two couries own 5 % of the global pates of artificial ielligence and have published one -third of all scieific articles in the field.
Artificial Ielligence at work: threat or opportunity?
Artificial ielligence has already transformed numerous industries; From coe production and product design to automatic coding and customer service; According to Anktad, 5 % of global jobs may be affected by the technology. In developed couries, up to one -third of jobs are exposed to automation. However, these couries have the greater capacity to exploit the benefits of artificial ielligence. According to reports, 5 % of jobs in these couries are capable of upgrading through artificial ielligence, so that they can increase productivity and complete human skills.
The backwardness of developing couries in the formulation of national strategy
In today’s world, the national strategy for developing artificial ielligence has become one of the main requiremes of growth. However, developing couries are still far from advanced couries. By year 2, two -thirds of developed couries had national artificial ielligence strategy, while this figure was only 2 % among developing couries (except for low -key couries). Among the low -key couries, only 5 % of such strategies had such strategies.
Anktad emphasizes that national policy should focus on three key axes; Infrastructure, data and skill:
- Promotion of infrastructure for equal access to electricity, iernet and processing power
- Promoting the Data Culture to promote effective cooperation and access
- General education in the field of artificial ielligence through iegration of STEM and AI concepts at differe levels of education from school to lifelong learning.
Worldwide sovereigy; The condition of fair exploitation of artificial ielligence
Although artificial ielligence does not know the border, its sovereigy is still unbalanced and limited to a few wealthy couries. Only G7 member states are active in all institutions and frameworks of global artificial ielligence, while the two couries are mainly developing in any of these communities.
The Anktad warns that the absence of developing couries from the process of global artificial ielligence is worrying. The organization, while emphasizing the importance of national regulations, has called for comprehensive iernational cooperation with the participation of multidisciplinary actors for human -ceered developme and in line with the global goals of sustainable developme.
The domination of technology companies over the global perspective
The view of today’s artificial ielligence is, in practice, by technology gias. Companies such as Apple, Nvidia and Microsoft each have a value of $ 5 trillion, a figure that equals the GDP of Africa.
The Anktad Year 6 report, in the end, emphasizes the need to strengthen iernational cooperation to advance comprehensive progress and preve inequality from deepening.
