LONDON - The head of Britain's domestic spy agency warned Tuesday that artificial intelligence was affecting the security risks faced by the UK, and could "change the stakes" on bioweapons.

The International Monetary Fund cautioned that governments have increasingly limited room to cushion future shocks amid rising energy prices, an uneven artificial intelligence boom and growing public debt.

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has warned that global financial markets could face greater pressure if a sharp correction in artificial intelligence (AI)-related stocks tightens global financial conditions.

The Bank of Thailand governor is confident the Thai economy will grow by 2.3% this year, supported by strong export growth and a surge in foreign direct investment.

Thailand is committed to serving as a bridge in an increasingly fragmented global economy, standing by international rules and cooperation even as major powers retreat from established frameworks.
