Treasury Secretary: Under the leadership of Walsh, the Federal Reserve will closely monitor the impact of AI on employment
According to a report by Golden Finance, US Treasury Secretary Besson stated on Tuesday that under the leadership of Kevin Walsh, the Federal Reserve's nominee for chairman, the Fed will closely monitor to ensure that there is no "time mismatch" between employment and productivity in the context of rapid development of artificial intelligence. During a video speech at an event hosted by Brazilian investment bank BTGPactual, Besent stated that the average growth rate of the US economy in the last three quarters of 2025 will reach 4.1%, and predicted that nominal GDP growth (excluding inflation) this year may reach 6%. Bessent said that historically, productivity booms have often been accompanied by employment booms, and the Federal Reserve will closely monitor this to "ensure there is no time mismatch".
