AI can help solve major societal challenges and provide significant benefits in a variety of areas. AI offers significant potential for the Nordic countries in business and public sector activities. The potential lies in implementing today's technology and know-how to increase efficiency and value creation, and in continued development where AI tools become more user-friendly and available for broad use, and in the long term, more advanced in more application areas. Widespread use of AI in the economy can double the economic growth potential in the long term.

- Increased Nordic opportunities for digital and data-driven interaction between the public and private sectors.
