New figures from the Brookings Institution estimate that total investment in data centers and related AI infrastructure will reach $10.3 trillion between 2025 and 2032.
That averages out to roughly 3.6% of US GDP per year — a weight no single industry expansion has ever carried in the US economy, underscoring just how unprecedented the current AI buildout is.
