BANGKOK, Oct ⁠17 (Reuters) - Rapidly improving artificial intelligence capabilities ⁠will bring far faster change ‌across all fields,Anthropic co-founder Jack Clark said on Saturday, with one of the company's ​internal economic models forecasting that ⁠it could vastly ⁠expand US economic output to $44 trillion ⁠by ‌2030.

Clark, speaking at IMF and World Bank annual meetings ⁠in Bangkok, said that international cooperation ​was needed ‌to erect "unusual and serious rules" ⁠for the ​transformative technology.

Clark said that the $44 trillion number, which compares to the current ⁠level of just over $30 ​trillion, "sounds very outlandish" but AI is vastly increasing scientific discovery.

"I know, but it's ⁠implicated by the technology continuing to get better. And if GDP were to grow this much, then economic ​doctrine suggests that ⁠new industries and inventions would need ​to have been created ‌to power such a ​major economic expansion."
