This marks the first time in history that a single technological sector's infrastructure spending has outpaced total consumer spending as an economic growth driver. Unlike the contained dot-com bubble of 2000, AI spending has become so deeply integrated into the broader economy that its potential collapse threatens the entire US financial system, not just the tech sector.

📰 What Happened
AI infrastructure investments have exceeded dot-com era telecom spending levels, with capital expenditures contributing more to US economic growth than total consumer spending in 2025. Paul Kedrosky warns this may be masking the impact of Trump's tariffs by acting as a private-sector stimulus. Renaissance Macro Research's Neil Dutta reveals AI spending is now a primary economic driver, raising concerns about an unprecedented bubble that could trigger an economy-wide collapse if AI fails to deliver promised returns.
📖 Prophetic Significance
The unprecedented scale of AI spending creates conditions for the type of economic control system described in Revelation 13. With AI infrastructure now surpassing consumer spending as an economic driver, we're seeing the emergence of a centralized technological framework that could enable rapid implementation of a global economic system. The potential for sudden collapse aligns with prophecies of economic instability preceding the implementation of the mark system. The masking effect of AI spending over Trump's tariffs demonstrates how this technology could facilitate a transition to a new economic order with minimal initial resistance.
