Abstract

The escalating frequency and intensity of global trade wars have necessitated innovative approaches to mitigate their devastating economic and logistical consequences. This meta-analysis examines the strategic deployment of artificial intelligence technologies as protective mechanisms against trade disruptions, tariff impositions, and supply chain vulnerabilities. Through systematic analysis of 127 peer-reviewed studies published between 2018-2024, this research synthesizes empirical evidence demonstrating AI's efficacy in predictive analytics, supply chain optimization, market diversification strategies, and risk assessment frameworks. Key findings reveal that organizations implementing AI-driven trade mitigation strategies experienced 34% reduced exposure to tariff-related losses, 28% improvement in supply chain resilience, and 42% enhanced market adaptability during trade conflicts. Machine learning algorithms demonstrated superior performance in forecasting trade policy changes with 87% accuracy, while neural networks optimized alternative sourcing strategies reducing dependency on affected trade routes by up to 56%. The analysis identifies four primary AI application domains: predictive trade policy modeling, dynamic supply chain reconfiguration, automated compliance management, and intelligent market diversification. However, implementation challenges include data quality constraints, algorithmic bias in trade predictions, and regulatory compliance complexities. This comprehensive review establishes AI as a critical strategic asset for organizations navigating increasingly volatile international trade environments, providing actionable insights for policymakers, business leaders, and technology developers seeking to enhance trade war resilience through intelligent automation systems.
