HONG KONG – PwC has unveiled its latest research report, Value in Motion, revealing that artificial intelligence (AI) could boost global GDP by an additional 15 percentage points by 2035. However, the outcome is not guaranteed and hinges on responsible deployment, trust, and collaboration across industries and governments.
The study uses data-driven scenario analysis to estimate that global growth could increase by one percentage point annually over the next decade, rivaling the gains seen during 19th-century industrialization. Yet, in scenarios where trust and cooperation falter, the gains from AI could be limited to 8%, or just 1% in the most pessimistic cases.
PwC’s global analysis indicates that economic reconfiguration is already underway, with an estimated US$7.1 trillion in revenue expected to shift between companies in 2025 alone. This transformation is driven by the convergence of sectors such as electric mobility, energy, and technology. PwC is launching strategic actions to help organizations scale enterprise AI and unlock new growth opportunities.
Mohamed Kande, Global Chairman at PwC, commented: “As the structure of the global economy evolves, companies must rethink value creation across industry boundaries. AI, when deployed responsibly, offers a powerful lever for long-term prosperity.”
