## Massive AI Investments: Who Will Foot the Bill? The artificial intelligence sector is experiencing unprecedented growth, with investments projected to reach $2.52 trillion this year, according to Gartner. This spending is mainly supported by large cloud providers and software vendors. ## The Monetization Challenge Despite the enthusiasm and huge sums invested, it remains to be seen how these investments will translate into concrete profits. Analysts predict a transition phase where the real profitability of AI solutions will be questioned. ## The Future of AI: A Shared Cost Model? It is likely that, in the long term, the costs of developing and implementing AI will be passed on to end users. This could happen through increased service prices or the introduction of new subscription models.
