Federal Reserve Governor Barr said artificial intelligence carries substantial potential and risks.

San Francisco Fed data show US total factor productivity (TFP) rose 1.10% over the four quarters through Q2, down from 1.61% in Q1. Utilization‑adjusted TFP fell 0.42% over the same period, with a single‑quarter annualized decline of 2.19% in Q2. Aggregate data do not yet show an AI-driven productivity jump. Federal Reserve research says AI remains in a phase of capability improvement, capital spending and firm adoption: use is broadening but shallow, and task-level efficiency gains have not translated via process reengineering into firm- or macro-level output. Historically, general-purpose technology investment and productivity gains often materialize only after a multi-year lag.
