“… [The] latest peak in the AI market comes amid a multitrillion-dollar spending spree on related infrastructure such as datacentres. Meanwhile, companies are attempting to deploy the technology in a way that makes investing in it worthwhile. Here’s a look at what stage the AI boom is at and six key charts that tell us how we got here…

• AI has sent stocks soaring
• Expenditure is growing at a staggering rate
• Firms and consumers are adopting AI at pace
• Claude is snapping at ChatGPT’s heels
• AI is getting more expensive to use
• Datacentre building might not keep pace with demand
• What AI models can do is expanding rapidly…”
