On October 17, local time, International Monetary Fund Managing Director Christalina Georgieva said in her concluding remarks at the 2026 Fall Annual Meeting held in Bangkok, Thailand, that the conference had in-depth discussions on topics such as global economic resilience, artificial intelligence development and risks, and global economic differentiation, and reached three core agreements. Georgieva pointed out that artificial intelligence has become an important driving force for economic growth, but excessive reliance on a single growth engine also poses risks. The foundations of global economic resilience are currently being challenged. Second, the global economy is becoming increasingly fragmented. Countries that have failed to participate in the AI value chain, as well as energy importers that have been hit by war, are facing greater pressure to develop, and the dividends of global economic growth have yet to be shared evenly. Third, artificial intelligence is developing rapidly, and current policy choices will profoundly influence its future development direction. All parties generally agree that while fully unleashing the dividends of artificial intelligence development, it is also necessary to establish necessary protective mechanisms, control related risks, and strengthen cooperation among governments, enterprises and international agencies.
