The economic and societal benefits Sweden can derive from AI depend not only on the technology’s potential, but also on our ability to access, adopt and create value from it.
That is why Sweden’s capacity to use AI and turn it into value is at the heart of SNS’s research project, AI and the Economic Transformation. The project examines the conditions needed for Sweden to harness this rapidly evolving technology while managing the associated risks, dependencies and trade-offs.
The project aims to provide insights into the factors that enable or limit Sweden’s ability to benefit from AI, and how these conditions can be improved.
