AI Governance Frameworks Compared: Convergence and Divergence Across 40 Jurisdictions
This paper examines ai governance frameworks compared. Drawing on original data and 41 expert interviews, we find that existing policy frameworks underestimate systemic risk and overestimate institutional capacity. The economic stakes are considerable. Conservative estimates suggest that disruption on this scale could shave between 0.3 and 0.7 percentage points off regional growth next year, with the heaviest burden falling on import-dependent economies and low-income households. We conclude with five recommendations for policymakers and outline an agenda for further research.
