## Resource

AI’s explosive growth is sparking a new inflation wave, as tech giants pour billions into data centers, driving up prices for chips, electronics, and even electricity. With semiconductor costs soaring 400% and major companies like Microsoft and Apple raising prices, consumers are feeling the squeeze—just as the Fed fights to hit its 2% inflation target. This AI-driven demand surge could keep prices elevated through 2025 and beyond, adding fresh pressure to the economy.
