A Blueprint for Intelligent Economies 2025

Growing new intelligent economies This layer of the blueprint builds upon the capabilities of the foundational layer to reimagine the core activities undertaken in every sector of new AI economies. Core value chains in all sectors will be transformed by embedding intelligence within applications, workflows, devices and robotics – fundamentally changing how work is done. Accelerate deployment of embedded intelligence: This objective encourages the automation of manual workflows through the accelerated deployment of AI in application workflows, physical devices, and robotics and the integration of AI with other advanced technologies. AI agents with embedded intelligence will offer the possibility of orchestrating complex activities. Ignite an AI-powered industrial revolution: This objective refers to the need to prioritize the adoption of AI in sectors and public services. Sectors like healthcare, finance, advanced manufacturing, food and agriculture, and sustainable and responsible energy can enable downstream benefits to other sectors of the economy. Cultivate ecosystems of entrpreneurship: This objective promotes the creation of AI innovation hubs, incubators and international entrepreneurial ecosystems, supported by venture funding and scale-up capital, all of which are key to nurturing new networks of innovators. Putting people at the heart of intelligent economies This layer of the blueprint shapes the direction of new intelligent economies. It encompasses the introduction of essential guidelines, policies and regulations that will shape and govern all the activities of the new intelligent economies, as well as the skills and workforce training required to drive human potential. Elevate human potential: This objective focuses on empowering individuals through accessible high-quality education, skill development and workforce training. These initiatives ensure that communities and societies have the lifelong learning opportunities necessary to thrive amid the significant opportunities and disruptive changes brought about by AI. Establish guardrails for ethics, safety and security: This objective refers to the importance of designing a future where the impact of AI on economies and wider society is guided by strong ethical guardrails, and safety and security controls.
