概要
The artificial intelligence industry is experiencing a significant correction after three years of explosive growth. The market has shifted decisively from hype-driven investment toward demanding measurable returns and practical applications.
MARKET MOVEMENT AND SENTIMENT
The S&P 500's AI-fueled gains face scrutiny as investor confidence wavers. Nvidia is scheduled to report fourth-quarter earnings on February 25, which analysts consider a critical bellwether for tech sector momentum. Meanwhile, market sentiment has cooled considerably. A gap has widened between capital invested and real value created, with investors increasingly skeptical of what they view as an AI bubble driven by Silicon Valley hype.
MAJOR DEALS AND PARTNERSHIPS
Despite skepticism, infrastructure investments continue accelerating. Bloom Energy secured multibillion-dollar agreements with Brookfield Asset Management, Oracle, and American Electric Power for AI data center power solutions. Notably, Nvidia secured a major deployment deal with OpenAI covering at least 10 gigawatts of AI data center capacity. Cisco and Sharon AI launched Australia's first Cisco Secure AI Factory with Nvidia technology, reflecting global infrastructure expansion.
INVESTMENT LANDSCAPE SHIFTS
Central European investors report declining AI funding, predicting 99 percent of winners will emerge from the United States. The market has moved from flashy consumer applications to vertical AI solutions targeting specific industries. Applied AI focused on industrial automation, logistics, and manufacturing now commands investor attention. Deep tech combining AI with physical hardware represents the standout 2026 priority.
ADOPTION TRENDS
Telecom companies show robust commitment to AI deployment. Nearly 89 percent of telecom firms plan to increase AI spending in 2026, compared with 65 percent last year. More than one-third expect budgeting increases exceeding 10 percent. About 77 percent of telecom survey respondents believe AI-native networks could launch before full 6G deployment.
COMPETITIVE POSITIONING
Apple's strategy contrasts sharply with hyperscaler approaches. While Amazon, Microsoft, Meta, and Alphabet collectively plan approximately 650 billion dollars in 2026 capital expenditure, Apple plans only 14 billion dollars. Apple outsources AI infrastructure to partners like OpenAI and Alphabet's Gemini, avoiding expensive proprietary data center buildout.
The industry narrative has fundamentally transformed from exploration to execution. Success now requires demonstrating immediate commercial ROI, technical excellence, and capital efficiency rather than innovative concepts alone.
