“I see three emerging trends in trade today: Number one, resilient trade; number two sustainable trade; and number three, green trade… The multilateral trading system must benefit workers… and address pressing issues such as intellectual property theft, sustainable development and the clean energy transition.”
Jose Fernandez, Under Secretary of State for Economic Growth, Energy, and the Environment, United States
“AI will be even more disruptive than the industrial revolution was… As human labour is displaced, there has to be a way for the new gains in productivity, revenue and efficiency to come back to human workers. The gains from the AIs make possible new kinds of jobs. Skilling workers for these new jobs will be crucial.”
Professor De Kai, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology; International Computer Science Institute, University of California at Berkeley
