Abstract

This paper examines the potential for using artificial intelligence (AI) as a general purpose technology and analyzes the reasons why its use may slow down the growth of public welfare. One of the most important reasons is the increase in inequality, which contributes to the activation of postmodern social movements that deny scientific knowledge and the principle of meritocracy. We argue that effective AI adoption in both developed and developing economies requires institutional transformations that limit competition by strengthening the role of collaborative mechanisms. Countries that fall within the intersection of "coordinated market economies" and "stakeholder capitalism" classes have the greatest chance of success in such transformations. Developing collaborative mechanisms is also essential in intercountry interactions to prevent the nascent arms race based on military AI implementation. Furthermore, a system of agreements between countries is needed to limit the impact of AI on the environment. In Russia, the use of AI can facilitate the development and coordination of national projects, the formation of domestic value-added networks within VAN- consortia, the reduction of interregional inequality in the quality of education and healthcare, and the creation of institutions of catching-up development. To achieve these goals and prevent the threat of increased unemployment, close collaboration between educational organizations, the state, and private companies is necessary.
