Abstract

Al applications are tackling economic and social challenges facing developing countries. Economically speaking, Al possesses unique mechanisms that allow it to have significant impacts on economic productivity. While developing countries may experience a decline in outsourcing jobs from developed countries, the potential negative impact of such decline can be minimized by appropriate policy to deploy Al solutions. The true potential of Al comes from the ability to complement as well as enhance traditional factors of production.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
