Bailey warns AI may not ‘live up’ to market expectations
Andrew Bailey said AI could boost productivity and growth, but warned that cyber threats and overvaluation could threaten financial stability.
- Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey warned at the Swiss Institute of International Studies in Zurich that frontier AI increases cyberattack risks and threatens financial stability.
- The National Cyber Security Centre warned last week that Britain faces the prospect of AI-boosted attacks on critical national infrastructure within the next two years.
- Vulnerabilities can be "discovered and exploited at a scale that was once unimaginable," Chief Executive Richard Horne said, while Bailey demanded "more extensive model testing" and "better incident reporting, monitoring and follow up."
- Bailey also noted risks of an "asset price bubble in AI," where companies might be overvalued and investor returns could take longer to materialize than current market expectations suggest.
- Despite these risks, Bailey stressed he remains an "optimist on AI, digital technology and most probably robotics too," noting they have potential to "lift the sustainable growth rates of many economies through raising productivity growth.
