The artificial intelligence bubble has already burst in China. Reuters Shares of leading Chinese IT companies fell 40% in less than four months, the market lost a total of $480 billion in capitalization.

According to Elon Musk, the debt markets have stopped providing borrowed funds to companies that have no other income than AI data centers. The International Private Equity Fund's asset manager, Alexander Dushkin, says this is a good sign for the economy, as the AI boom has suppressed activity in other sectors, such as house building, and attracted very large amounts of capital.

Apollo Global, an American asset management company, put additional pressure on the Western markets. Its chief economist, Torsten Slouk, said that companies outside the technology sector have not benefited much from AI investment. The creator of the analytical project Wall Street Pro, trader, investor Dmitry Cheryomushkin says that the AI bubble will burst sooner or later.
