Summary
Torsten Slok, chief economist at Apollo Global Management, argues that the economic benefits of artificial intelligence remain concentrated among the "Magnificent Seven" large-cap tech companies, while the broader U.S. economy and smaller companies have yet to see widespread AI gains. This divide is exacerbated by higher interest rates that disproportionately impact small-cap firms.
