AI may boost euro area productivity growth by 4% in 10 years, ECB says

AI may boost euro area productivity growth by 4% in 10 years, ECB says

Tradingview.com and 2 more

ECB Chief Economist Philip Lane says AI could lift euro-area productivity by more than 4 percentage points over the next decade, but progress depends on how quickly adoption spreads and energy costs.
A take-up rate similar to the internet could deliver at least 1.5 percentage points of extra productivity growth in 10 years, Lane notes.
If AI adoption reaches at least half the economy, gains could exceed 4 percentage points, underscoring the scale of potential impact.
Lane warns that high energy costs and the energy intensity of AI could slow model development and adoption.
Europe lags the US in AI innovation, with only about 3% of euro-area patents related to AI compared with 9% in the United States.
Europe pays roughly 250 billion euros a year in royalties to foreign patent-holders, highlighting dependence on imported AI tech.
Europe's shallower capital markets are seen as a barrier to scaling AI innovation and investment.
Policy priorities include broader access to finance, diffusion to smaller firms, and investment in skills and intangible assets.
The ECB emphasizes that AI gains hinge on adoption speed and energy prices that affect model building and deployment costs.
AI's greatest long-run impact would come if it materially boosts the pace of innovation, potentially raising long-run growth beyond productivity gains alone.
