两种不同的敞口,而不是一种担忧

「AI 是不是一个泡沫,我是否暴露在其中」实际上是把两个问题合而为一。第一个问题是投资组合敞口:退休账户与指数基金,是否已经异常集中于少数几家与 AI 相关的公司,以及如果支撑这种集中度的支出令人失望,会发生什么。第二个问题是劳动力市场敞口——一个家庭的收入(而不只是储蓄),是否依赖于 AI 可能重塑的工作类型——家庭收入规划劳动力市场冲击两页对此有深入探讨。本页聚焦第一个问题:在「AI 泡沫」这场辩论的正反两方,有资历的声音各自说了些什么,支撑这场争论的支出在已披露的美元数字上是什么样子,以及主要资产管理机构目前如何看待集中度风险。

适用范围与专业边界

本页梳理的是经济学家、央行官员、企业研究部门与资产管理机构之间一场仍在进行、尚无定论的辩论。这是一般性的知识介绍,而不是针对个人的投资、税务或法律建议,也不推荐买入、卖出或持有任何资产。有关你自身情况的具体决定,请咨询持牌财务顾问。

认为这是一个泡沫的论证

持怀疑立场的阵营,包括那些以「判断正确」为生的人。投资人 Michael Burry 在将 Scion 注销为 SEC 顾问机构之前提交的最后一份 13F 文件中,披露了针对英伟达与 Palantir 的大额看跌期权头寸,此后他一直警告 AI 股票可能出现「1987 年式」的暴跌——不过他近期引用的最大数字来自他自己的通讯简报,而非进一步的 SEC 备案文件。Apollo Global Management 的首席经济学家 Torsten Slok 计算认为,与 AI 相关的数据中心资本支出,正从 2025 年占 GDP 的 1.4%,升向 2027 年前后约 3% 的水平——增速几乎是 2000 年代房地产繁荣的两倍——他认为,一个建立得如此之快的周期,同样可能以类似的速度崩解。GMO 联合创始人 Jeremy Grantham 称,按市值与 GDP 之比衡量,由 AI 驱动的这轮市场是美国历史上最昂贵的市场,他运用自己那套「两个标准差」的泡沫判定框架,认为一次约 70% 的峰谷跌幅是有可能出现的,但具体时机确实难以确定。

机构层面的声音,以更少戏剧性的方式呼应了这种担忧。麻省理工学院经济学家、2024 年诺贝尔奖得主 Daron Acemoglu 认为,无论理论还是数据,都不支持那些最为乐观的增长预测,他所建立的模型估计 AI 在十年内为 GDP 带来的增量大约在 1.1% 至 1.6% 之间,远低于其他估计。作为全球各国央行的伞形机构,国际清算银行发现,AI 投资占 GDP 的比重正在激增,并得出结论:只有当 AI 企业实现可观的盈利目标时,金融稳定性风险才显得温和,同时该行也指出,股票与债务估值之间的差距正在扩大,对债务融资来支撑这轮建设的依赖也在上升。美联储理事 Lisa Cook 曾警告,一场持续依赖债务融资的繁荣,本身就可能演变为一种稳定性方面的隐忧,与此同时,她也认为由 AI 驱动的增长在净效应上支撑了稳定性。IMF 总裁 Kristalina Georgieva 曾告诫听众要为动荡做好准备,她把当前的估值与网络泡沫时期的亢奋相提并论,并警告一次剧烈的回调,可能会让金融环境的收紧远远超出科技行业本身的范围。

认为这不是——或者说尚不是——泡沫的论证

看多与立场混合的观点,恰恰来自上文那些发出警告的同一批研究部门,这一点本身就很能说明问题。高盛研究部估计,已经有约 19 万亿美元的市值,在提前计入了 AI 的经济回报,而实际被衡量到的生产率提升尚未达到那个水平——这本身是一个听起来相当看空的数字——但同一家公司也在另一份报告中指出,AI 资本支出占美国 GDP 的比重,依然低于此前的历次科技周期,而且与网络泡沫时代的前辈不同,大多数投入 AI 支出的公司,依然产生大量的自由现金流、回购股票并派发股息。就连 OpenAI 自己的首席执行官,也持有一种混合立场:Sam Altman 曾表示投资者对 AI「过度兴奋」,并把当下这一时刻与网络泡沫相提并论,同时依然坚称 AI 是很长一段时间以来最重要的发展之一,他后来还预测,一些投资者将损失巨额资金,而另一些人将因此发家致富。这一切读起来,都不像是整个行业在围绕一套统一的说法抱团——分歧贯穿于相同的机构内部,而不仅仅存在于各机构之间。

支出的实际情况究竟是什么样子

无论人们对估值得出什么结论,底层的支出都是真实的、已披露的、规模庞大的。微软报告 2026 财年第四季度资本支出为 410 亿美元,其中约三分之二为使用寿命较短的 CPU 与 GPU,而 2027 财年的支出指引依然是持续增长。Meta 的2026 年第二季度财报电话会议披露,该季度资本支出为 311 亿美元,而自由现金流仅为 7.84 亿美元,全年指引已收窄至 1300 亿至 1450 亿美元区间,尚未给出 2027 年的具体数字。根据 Alphabet 与亚马逊各自的2026 年第二季度业绩以及亚马逊 7 月的电话会议,两家公司今年都不止一次上调了 2026 年的资本支出指引,而甲骨文的云业务积压订单达到 6380 亿美元,同时其自身的资本支出也大幅走高。

有几个占据新闻头条的巨额交易数字,值得格外谨慎地看待:它们是意向书与被披露的积压订单,而不是已经落地的合同。英伟达自己发布的公告中所提到的、向 OpenAI 投入「最高 1000 亿美元」的说法,当时被明确表示不具约束力;到了年底,英伟达自己的首席财务官表示并不存在一份确定的协议,而后续报道也发现,最终真正落地的交易金额远低于这一数字。同样被广泛报道的OpenAI 与甲骨文之间为期五年、金额达 3000 亿美元的「星际之门」协议,同样只能追溯到被披露的交易条款,而非一份完整列明细节的公开合同。经济学家 Noah Smith 另外提出了「循环融资」的问题——芯片行业对 AI 实验室的投资,以算力采购收入的形式回流——尽管有一种估计认为此类安排的规模「超过 8000 亿美元」,但这一数字来自市场聚合类网站,而非任何具名的银行、经济学家或监管机构,应当被视为示意性的,而非已得到证实的数字。

集中度:为何「市场」越来越等同于少数几家公司

投资组合对 AI 的敞口,很少是刻意的选择;它通常是通过普通的指数敞口悄然产生的。「壮丽七雄」到 2025 年 12 月已占标普 500 指数市值的约 34.3%,高于 2015 年约 12.3% 的水平,并且仅在 2025 年一年,就贡献了该指数总回报的约 42%——这意味着一支「分散化」的标普 500 指数基金,在实践中已经是一场日益集中的 AI 押注。为何如此少数几家公司会处于这场押注的中心——涉及对芯片、数据中心产能与前沿模型的控制——权力集中:为何少数几家实验室举足轻重一文对此有专门探讨。

尽管彼此互为竞争对手,主要的资产管理机构已经开始用相似的措辞明确表达这一点。先锋集团把 AI 真正的经济上行空间——其自身模型确实给出了 3% GDP 增长情景的实际概率——与它认为被过度高估的科技股估值区分开来,即便在看多情景下,该机构对美国科技股未来五到十年的预测,也只是平淡的 4% 至 5% 平均回报率。贝莱德警告称,过高的集中度会侵蚀指数敞口本应带来的分散化收益,把投资组合拴在一组狭窄的结果之上,并建议将对 AI 领军企业的敞口,与更广泛的分散化配置结合起来。摩根大通资产管理的说法最为直接:支持 AI 的结构性论证依然成立,但指数层面的敞口本身就集中了风险,该机构建议向与 AI 相关的其他行业、其他地区与私募市场进行分散配置。这三家机构没有一家呼吁撤离股票市场;但三家都把集中度本身称为一种风险,与 AI 最终能否兑现承诺无关。

薪水这一侧的账本

另一种敞口——家庭收入是否依赖于受 AI 影响的工作——所依托的研究基础,比上文的市场集中度之争要单薄得多,本手册宁愿如实说明这一点,也不愿从任何一方那里借来一种虚假的精确性。被引用最多的直接证据,来自经济学家 Anders Humlum 与 Emilie Vestergaard 所做的一项丹麦研究,该研究把约 25,000 名处于 ChatGPT 暴露职业中的劳动者的问卷回答,与丹麦的行政性收入记录进行了关联,发现对收入与工时的影响在统计上被精确估计为零,可以排除在 ChatGPT 发布后两年内出现超过约 2% 的影响。这只是一个数据集、一个国家、一个观察窗口——它是一个数据点,而不是关于这一情况在其他地方或更长时间跨度上将如何演变的定论。有关更新、更聚焦的美国招聘链条证据,以及具体的家庭规划步骤,参见在不确定的劳动力市场中规划家庭收入劳动力市场冲击:数据究竟显示了什么

一个分析框架,而不是一份预测

把上文这些名字排列在一起,浮现出的是一个比任何一方的头条论断都更有用的模式:这场争论贯穿于相同的机构内部,而不是干净利落地在各机构之间展开。高盛既发表了泡沫论,也发表了对这一论断的反驳;美联储理事们在同一场发言中,前一句还把 AI 驱动的增长归功于其对经济的支撑作用,后一句就把它标记为一种依赖债务融资的稳定性风险;就连 OpenAI 自己的首席执行官,也同时对自己所在的这个行业持有这两种立场。这并不能证明这场辩论只是无法平息的噪音——它证明的是,包括那些最能接触到底层数据的人在内,目前没有任何人拥有一套经过验证、能够说明这场争论将如何收场的模型。一个家庭合理的应对方式,不是押注哪一方最终会一锤定音,而是留意集中度是如何在默认情况下悄悄渗入自己的退休账户的,并就此单独去与一位持牌顾问讨论——按照这件事本身的是非曲直去讨论,而不是按照某条新闻标题的说法。
