据估算，标普500成分股公司每年通过AI可节省成本约9200亿美元(主要来自薪资支出减少与生产率提 升)，这一数字相当于标普500指数成分股公司总薪酬支出的41%，约占该指数2026年预期税前盈利的 28%。这种效率提升预计将对各行业产生深远影响，最终可能为标普500指数带来13-16万亿美元的市值 增长，接近其当前总市值的四分之一。 尽管多数成本节省预计来自薪资缩减，但报告明确区分了"全面自动化"与"任务层面增强"的差异：智能 体AI(Agentic AI)更可能重新分配任务，而非直接淘汰岗位;而人形机器人等实体AI(Embodied AI)则在物 流、实体零售等行业构成更直接的岗位替代风险。 摩根士丹利分析师提醒，AI技术的全面应用可能需要数年甚至数十年时间。企业初期更可能通过"自然 减员"与"流程优化"实现AI落地，而非立即大规模裁员——尤其是在"客户对接岗位直接影响营收"的行 业。报告还预测，全新职业类别将随之涌现，例如首席AI官、AI治理专家等，这与此前技术变革浪潮 中"程序员、IT专业人员、数字营销人员需求激增"的规律一脉相承。 对投资者而言，结论已然清晰：AI不再是投机性主题。其潜在成本节省规模 ...

汇丰称，其进一步深入分析，梳理了企业在财报电话会和会议上的表述，以识别AI采用带来的具体成 本效益。在样本中的44家标普500指数成分股公司中，管理层报告的运营成本中位数下降了1.5%，平均 效率提升达24%。如果标普500指数成分股公司整体的AI采用能够带来1%的成本节约(该行认为这是可 行的)，则可抵消20%有效关税带来的负面影响的近四分之一。正如该行美国股票策略师所言，若AI采 用持续加速，可能推动市场进行有意义的重新评级，并支撑标普500指数在年底达到7000点(牛市情景 下)。 汇丰补充称，有证据显示，美国企业的AI采用已经在加速。美国人口普查局的调查数据显示，自特朗 普胜选以来，报告使用AI的公司比例已上升50%，从6%提升至9%。然而，这一数字很可能严重低估了 大型企业的采用率——标普500指数成分股公司中有60%的公司在第二季度财报电话会上提到使用AI。 该行表示，部分AI的应用可能反映了企业削减人工成本的努力，而人工成本占标普500指数成分股公司 总运营费用的17%。不过，采用AI的好处不仅限于成本削减，AI还在帮助自动化任务、提升效率，使企 业能在相同成本基础上创造更多收入。越来越多的证据 ...

摩根士丹利（Morgan Stanley）的策略师们最新表示，人工智能（AI）带来的生产率提高和成本削减热潮，将为标准普尔500指数再增加 13至16万亿美元的价值。 按照大摩给出的最高值估计，这意味着这个基准指数的市值将再提高29%。 该行策略师们在最新报告中写道，其预测没有具体的时间表，只是假设人工智能的能力将继续"快速提升"，并且企业将广泛采用人工智 能。按年计算，这可能会为大盘股公司增加约9,200亿美元的净收益，主要是由于公司裁员、降低成本和帮助创造新的收入。 大摩策略师门估计，人工智能智能体（Agentic AI，即能够在比生成型人工智能更少的监督下做出决策和行动的人工智能）可能贡献约 4900亿美元的价值，而具身型人工智能（embodied AI，即类人机器人）可能贡献约4300亿美元的价值。 大摩还称，根据该行的相关研究，企业在采用人工智能方面正显示出"拐点"的迹象。 策略师们写道："这种程度的市场价值创造需要全面采用，这需要很多年的时间，时间框架因公司和行业而异。如果人工智能的能力继续 以非线性的速度提高，人工智能应用所创造的价值将超过我们已经很高的估计。" 就业市场影响 大摩表示，虽然股市 ...
