Bubble analysis
A data center operator ramping up AI capex shows compute infrastructure spending is still expanding, a concrete example of the 'spending keeps inflating' side of the bubble debate. But without any dollar figures, we can't tell whether that spending is running far ahead of AI revenue, so the evidence is weak.
