Summary
Kevin Warsh used his first major speech since President Donald Trump nominated him to pair a pledge to curb inflation with an unusual focus on artificial intelligence.
Federal Reserve officials are already debating how AI could reshape the U.S. economy and labor market, according to a Washington Post analysis, elevating the technology into a policy issue for the central bank.
That attention suggests the Fed is weighing not just price pressures but also how a fast-moving technology boom could alter growth, productivity and jobs.
