What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

A new analysis from the University of Hawaiʻi Economic Research Organization (UHERO) found that the artificial intelligence boom is supporting U.S. economic growth. Professor Emeritus Byron Gangnes examined how AI-related investments and rising stock market wealth are influencing the economy. AI development has fueled spending on data centers, computer equipment, and software, while rising stock values have increased household wealth and supported consumer spending.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

AI-related stock market gains have contributed between $255 billion and $509 billion to additional consumer spending since late 2022. However, the report warns that a sharp decline in AI-related stock values could reduce consumer spending, disrupt planned investments, and potentially push the economy into recession.

The AI boom is currently driving productivity gains across U.S. firms.
