Svmuu News Cryptocurrency analyst Ai disclosed data on platform X, stating that companies in the artificial intelligence field raised approximately $242 billion in funding in the first quarter of 2026, accounting for about 80% of global venture capital. However, the capital was highly concentrated in a few "mega funding rounds," such as OpenAI's $122 billion round, Anthropic's $30 billion round, xAI's $20 billion round, and Waymo's $16 billion round. Meanwhile, enterprise AI spending continues to rise. Gartner predicts that global total AI spending will reach $2.52 trillion in 2026, a year-on-year increase of 44%, with capital rapidly shifting from the application layer to infrastructure and computing power development.
