Foreword
I am delighted to present the World Trade Organization Secretariat’s first comprehensive report on artificial intelligence (AI) and international trade. This report marks a milestone in our efforts to understand the impacts AI is having, and will continue to have, on global trade.
How domestic policies can shape the trade and AI relationship to favour inclusive economic growth
Trade policies are a necessary part of any relationship between trade and AI that results in inclusive economic growth.
Foreword by the WTO Director-General
Rapid advances in artificial intelligence (AI) are transforming the world economy, reshaping how work is defined, how value is created, and how opportunities are distributed across societies. Given these far-reaching effects, AI is also transforming world trade.
Introduction
With the launch of ChatGPT in November 2022, artificial intelligence (AI), and in particular generative AI – capable of generating high-quality text, images and other content based on the data on which it is trained – entered into public consciousness and has been experiencing rapid adoption.

Introduction
The development and deployment of artificial intelligence (AI) have accelerated in the last few years, and its applications hold the potential to revolutionize human society and economic activities.
Executive summary
The widespread and transformative impact that artificial intelligence (AI) is currently having on society is being felt in all areas, from work, production and trade to health, arts and leisure activities.
AI, trade and inclusive growth: opportunities and challenges
This chapter provides a detailed economic analysis of the transformative potential of AI, focusing on its impact on trade and inclusive growth.
International cooperation to make trade and AI work for all
As trade shapes the development and deployment of AI, and AI could, in turn, reshape global trade, stronger international trade cooperation, both at the WTO and with other international organizations, is important to ensure that AI is beneficial and that the benefits of AI are more widely shared.
Executive summary
Artificial intelligence (AI) is beginning to reshape the global economy.
