Artificial intelligence and economic growth in G20 economies: investigating nonlinear effects through a GMM method

This study investigates the non-linear impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on economic growth in 19 G20 countries, using data from 2005 to 2023 and employing the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) with both linear and quadratic models. The linear model indicates that AI-related innovation has a positive and significant effect on economic growth, while the negative quadratic term confirms a concave relationship between AI and growth. Regarding the effects of AI interactions with various mechanisms on economic…

Current reading — gain

In 19 G20 countries from 2005 to 2023, AI-related innovation increased economic growth, with larger gains when paired with financial innovation, trade openness, and government final consumption expenditure.

Current reading — problem

In the same 19 G20 countries, the relationship between AI and economic growth is concave, indicating diminishing marginal returns as AI intensity rises.

How to verify without trusting this page

Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-0139 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
