Bank of America's research team suggests that AI's current aggregate productivity impact on the global economy is only 0.1%, despite significant task-level gains in areas like software development and customer support. They attribute this gap to the fact that only a fraction of AI-transformable tasks are currently cost-effective to automate. However, BofA projects that AI could eventually deliver productivity gains ten times larger than previous innovations like electricity or the internet, following a J-curve pattern of delayed impact followed by rapid acceleration.
