Critics Slam AI Valuations That Shift Risk to Pension Funds

Original: The whole arrangement is remarkable: # investors get to cash out on an # AIvaluation nobody can justify, # pensionfunds

Commentators are criticising the financing behind the AI investment boom, arguing investors are cashing out on valuations nobody can justify while pension funds are handed the underlying risk. The concern is that if the AI bubble bursts, governments will bail the sector out on the grounds that the economy is too important to let it fail.

Why now: Growing debate over whether the AI investment boom is a bubble whose risks are being offloaded onto ordinary savers.
