2020 China, AI and the middle-income trap https://daxueconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/AI-in-China-2020-White-Paper-by-daxue-consulting-2.pdf
What middle-income countries can draw from the experience of the countries that have successfully crossed the middle-income trap has become a theoretical and practical issue where an in-depth study is demanded as these countries account for a large proportion of the world's economy. There are many research studies on crossing the middle-income trap and artificial intelligence, but few studies have combined the two.
AI can help middle-income countries leapfrog development by boosting productivity and enabling innovation in sectors like manufacturing, agriculture, and healthcare. However, without proper infrastructure, education, and policies, it risks widening economic gaps by automating low-skill jobs and eroding labor cost advantages. Success depends on investing in STEM education, digital infrastructure, and workforce upskilling to fully leverage AI’s potential for economic growth.
IYH Dear Fatemeh Akbari Shahrestani if you are researching the topic as a longer term project, see below. Could eg cross-correlate the findings below w the job makeup in a given country.
Kenn So:
"I analyzed 800 jobs and 16,000 tasks, examining their wages to pinpoint the top 12 areas where AI agents are poised to make the greatest impact. Some are obvious, like software engineering and K-12 (hence Chegg stock dropped >90% this year). The less obvious are HR and architecture.
For a deeper dive into the analysis, including detailed insights on each area, check out the AI Trends 2024 report" https://www.generational.pub/p/ai-trends-2024
