Consultancy Bain & Company has calculated that artificial intelligence would need to generate around $6 trillion in annual revenue to justify the massive spending now going into data centres and computing infrastructure. The figure, reported by The National, underlines the scale of the gap between current AI revenues and the investment being committed, fueling debate about whether the AI buildout is a bubble.
Why now: Concerns are growing that investment in AI infrastructure may not be matched by actual returns, reviving bubble talk.
