This event, organised by the Trade Policy Exchange, will explore the interplay between Trade Policy and Artificial Intelligence (AI). The advent of AI is heralding a new era in international trade, presenting unprecedented opportunities and formidable challenges. From facilitating paperless cross-border transactions to reshaping global value chains and enhancing market competitiveness, AI is poised to transform the trading system in ways yet to be fully understood. Yet, this digital revolution brings with it questions of governance, equity, and the future of work, necessitating a deep dive into the implications of AI-driven trade.
The panel will provide insights on key questions, including:
▪ What is artificial intelligence (AI) and how can the technology be framed?
▪ What are the opportunities for and risks of AI in international trade?
▪ What are some emergent sources of AI-related law and how are they evolving?
▪ What does ‘trade in AI’ look like in the future?
