AI needs $6 trillion annual revenue to justify data centre boom

Original: AI needs $6T in annual revenue to justify data centre boom

The figure highlights the widening gap between infrastructure investment by tech giants and the revenue AI products actually bring in, fuelling debate over whether the boom is a bubble.

Why now: Concerns are growing that AI infrastructure spending far outstrips realistic revenue prospects, revalling bubble comparisons.
