What happened
Major technology companies, including Google, Amazon, and Microsoft, are increasing capital expenditures on AI infrastructure. This intense demand is causing a multi-year compute shortage, a problem SpaceX is addressing by planning to launch AI data centers into space.
Why it matters
AI-linked spending now accounts for a disproportionate share of American growth. Goldman Sachs predicts that spending on AI infrastructure, including data centers and chips, will rise from $765 billion this year to $1.6 trillion by 2031.
