How Poland Stands in the AI Era

In this episode of Poland Weekly, Sylwia Ziemacka sits down with Ignacy Morawski, Chief Economist at Puls Biznesu, to explore the critical questions surrounding Poland’s place in the AI era.

Over the past 30 years, Poland and other Central and Eastern European countries have been among the fastest-growing economies in the world. Part of the model that allowed Poland to benefit from opening up to Western markets included the execution of orders for Western manufacturers. Slowly, Poland’s previous competitive advantages are beginning to be exhausted. Poland’s gradual convergence with other Western European economies and demographic changes require a reorganisation of the growth model in favour of investment in innovation and a knowledge-based economy.

AI technologies are at the threshold of wide adoption in the economy, being at a similar stage to where the Internet was in the late 1990s. However, significant barriers to the wider adoption of new technologies in Poland remain.

In this episode, we discuss:
👉The economic drivers behind Poland’s success over the past 30 years.
👉The need for Poland to redesign its growth model and the current impact of AI on the economy.
👉Analyzing Poland’s readiness to adapt to the AI era and the potential outcomes:
What can be achieved by embracing AI in the economy?
What are the risks if this opportunity is missed?

Join us for an insightful conversation on Poland’s economic transformation and the role of AI in shaping its future.
