Gregory Daco, chief economist at EY-Parthenon, reported that private-sector investment in artificial intelligence has been a primary driver of the United States economy. Since the beginning of 2025, AI-related spending has accounted for approximately 50% of total U.S. GDP growth. On average, AI-driven private spending contributed 1.1 percentage points to the economic expansion during this period. This significant contribution highlights the growing role of technology investment in sustaining national macroeconomic momentum.
