IMF chief Kristalina Georgieva said AI could add up to half a point a year to world growth, with investment set to match or exceed the railroads' share of GDP. The same boom lifts inflation and competes with governments for bond money, so economies outside the AI supply chain risk the higher rates without the growth.

US 10-year Treasury yields rose to 5.30% on Wednesday, their highest since 2002, even though inflation came in cooler. Whatever drove it, growth or government debt, a cash-flow model that counted on cooling inflation to lower its discount rate now needs a higher one.
