IMF与世行年会在曼谷开幕：格奥尔基耶娃称AI支撑全球增长，约40%岗位将受影响
曼谷——国际货币基金组织（IMF）与世界银行2026年年会10月12日星期一在曼谷诗丽吉王后国家会展中心（QSNCC）开幕，来自191个国家的约15,000名代表与会。这是该年会首次落户泰国——一个刚经历数周严重洪灾的发展中经济体，泰国以此向世界推介其人工智能、电动车和清洁能源的投资雄心。
开幕讨论聚焦人工智能对全球经济的双面影响。IMF总裁克里斯塔利娜·格奥尔基耶娃表示，全球增长维持在约3%，主要得益于对人工智能基础设施的投资，能源供应压力是当前的阻力；她同时指出，AI长期来看估计会影响全球约40%的工作岗位，对就业、教育、生产率和政府收入构成重大影响。新加坡总统尚达曼在会上警告，AI正在削弱应届毕业生第一份工作的需求；世界银行行长彭安杰（Ajay Banga）则表示，小规模的AI应用可以在农业、医疗和教育等关键领域提高生产率。
年会将在10月18日闭幕，议程包括全球增长、债务、气候融资与AI治理等议题。泰国副政府发言人拉丽达表示，泰国希望借主场之利，展示其在AI、清洁能源、电池储能、半导体与生物技术上的投资潜力，并加强与各国的经济伙伴关系。东道国还专门为投资者设置了议程，邀请潜在投资者实地考察泰国东部经济走廊的旗舰项目。
这场年会在洪灾善后尚未结束的曼谷举行，为会议增添了一层现实注脚：主办方反复强调泰国经济的韧性——经济在反复冲击下迅速复苏的能力。曼谷能否在洪水之后办成一届无恙的年会，本身就是泰国想向15,000名客人证明的事情。

IMF–World Bank Meetings Open in Bangkok: Georgieva Credits AI with Propping Up Global Growth, Says 40% of Jobs Will Be Affected
BANGKOK — The 2026 Annual Meetings of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank opened on Monday, October 12, at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center (QSNCC) in Bangkok, drawing about 15,000 delegates from 191 countries. It is the first time the meetings have been held in Thailand — a developing economy just emerging from weeks of severe flooding — and Thailand is using the occasion to promote its investment ambitions in artificial intelligence, electric vehicles and clean energy.
Opening discussions centred on AI's double-edged impact on the global economy. IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva said global growth is holding at around 3 percent, propped up mainly by investment in AI infrastructure, with energy-supply pressure the current headwind; she noted that AI is estimated to eventually affect about 40 percent of jobs worldwide, with significant consequences for employment, education, productivity and government revenue. Singapore President Tharman Shanmugaratnam warned at the meetings that AI is dampening demand for fresh graduates' first jobs, while World Bank President Ajay Banga said smaller-scale AI applications could raise productivity in critical areas such as agriculture, healthcare and education.
The meetings run until October 18, with an agenda spanning global growth, debt, climate finance and AI governance. Deputy government spokesperson Lalida Persvivatana said Thailand aims to use its home stage to showcase investment potential in AI, clean energy, battery storage, semiconductors and biotechnology, and to strengthen economic partnerships. A special programme invites prospective investors to visit flagship projects in the Eastern Economic Corridor.
Holding the meetings in a Bangkok still recovering from floods adds a layer of real-world context: organisers repeatedly stress the resilience of the Thai economy — its capacity to recover quickly from repeated shocks. Whether Bangkok can stage a flawless meetings week after the floods is itself the point Thailand wants to prove to its 15,000 guests.
