[Bain said that the AI ​​industry faces the test of achieving US$6 trillion in revenue based on data center capital investment] On September 29, Bain said that by 2031, the global artificial intelligence industry needs to achieve an annual revenue of US$6 trillion to justify the funds invested in building data centers around the world. The consultancy said in its annual global technology report on Tuesday that existing AI services for consumers and businesses could generate up to $1.8 trillion in revenue, meaning $4.2 trillion in new revenue would still need to be created. The gap is likely to come from emerging areas such as autonomous machines and robotics, as well as emerging areas such as drug development, mental health and energy production, the report said.
