1.当前美国算力投资是在通用人工智能越来越近的趋势下，所做的超前基础设施布局。总体上，当前美国算力基建已有泡沫迹象，但尚未到失 控的边缘，虽不能完全排除算力泡沫破裂可能性，但无论从当前大模型技术的快速迭代，大模型企业高速增长的营收，以及各行业上云落地的 需求，都让这一巨额投资具备一定的合理性。 2.美国当前规划建设的大型数据中心项目总装机容量已突破 45 吉瓦（GW），这场建设热潮预计将吸引超 2.5 万亿美元投资。大西洋月刊文章 设想了一种"崩盘机制"，即当这些巨额投资未能按预期变现、资本市场情绪转向、防御性抛售开始，就可能触发系统性的回落，科技股回落→ 估值压缩→投资放缓→AI 基础设施、芯片、数据中心等领域连锁受累。 3.大模型企业的增长斜率足够高，对芯片供应的需求持续提升。从收入来看，以OpenAI和Anthropic为代表的美国企业在个人用户和企业用户 两端均已实现可观收入。如预计今年底OpenAI的年化收入将超过200亿美元，比之前预测的130亿美元大幅增长，相比去年的40亿美元更是增 长5倍，并计划到2030年增长至数千亿美元。 4.今年三季度，亚马逊、微软和谷歌的云计算收入受AI拉动，分别达3 ...
