Is there an AI bubble? Financial institutions sound a warning

Is there an AI bubble? Financial institutions sound a warning

LONDON (AP) — As lingering skepticism regarding the economic potential of artificial intelligence technology surfaces, financial institutions have begun to voice concerns this week about a possible AI investment bubble.

On Wednesday, officials from the Bank of England highlighted the escalating risk of a market correction triggered by inflated tech stock valuations fueled by the AI surge.

“The likelihood of a sharp market correction has increased,” warned the U.K. central bank.

Hours after the Bank of England’s announcement, the head of the International Monetary Fund expressed a similar concern.

Global stock markets have experienced significant growth, driven by an “optimism about the productivity-enhancing capabilities of AI,” according to IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva.

However, she cautioned that financial conditions could “shift unexpectedly,” an observation made during a speech in anticipation of the organization’s annual gathering in Washington next week.

Is there indeed an AI bubble?

“Identifying bubbles is notoriously challenging, but we can observe several indicators of a potential bubble in the current context,” commented Adam Slater, chief economist at Oxford Economics.

Indicators include an accelerated rise in tech stock prices, with tech companies comprising roughly 40% of the S&P 500, as well as inflated market valuations that seem “stretched” beyond their actual worth and an overwhelming sense of optimism surrounding the technology, despite considerable ambiguities regarding its future impact, Slater noted.

Some of the most optimistic forecasts regarding generative AI projects predict a radical transformation of the economy, leading to annual productivity increases that Slater asserts have not been seen since the post-World War II reconstruction of Europe. At the lower end of projections, economist Daron Acemoglu from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology anticipates a “nontrivial but modest” U.S. productivity increase of merely 0.7% over the next decade.

<p“You have this extraordinarily wide spectrum of possibilities,” Slater observed. “No one truly knows where it will land.”

Skepticism regarding top AI companies’ valuations

In recent months, investors have keenly monitored a series of interconnected agreements among leading AI developers, including OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT, and firms producing the expensive computer chips and data centers crucial for AI functionalities.

Despite not being profitable, OpenAI has emerged as the world’s most valuable startup with a market value of $500 billion. Recently, it has entered into significant partnerships with Nvidia, the leading publicly traded company, and AMD, along with a $300 billion agreement with Oracle for future data center expansions.
