Jerome Powell

Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell addressed AI bubble concerns, differentiating it from the dotcom era by highlighting tangible earnings and revenue streams in many AI companies. He cited investments in infrastructure like data centers and chip tech as key economic drivers. While Nvidia’s profitability underscores hardware demand, some AI startups like OpenAI and Anthropic are burning cash despite high valuations. The market’s long-term viability relies on translating innovation into sustainable profits, a key area of focus for the Fed in assessing AI’s impact on economic stability.
