The chief financial officer of Amazon Web Services said in an interview that the spending boom in AI infrastructure and services is sustainable because it is spawning innovation with real value. Some investors and analysts are beginning to worry about the AI bubble, focusing on expanding debt, corporate valuations, revolving finance transactions, and whether revenue growth can keep up with large-scale infrastructure investment. AWS Chief Financial Officer John Felton said that the company's capital expenditure on AI has paid off, and experience has proven that investing heavily in the AI field can reap benefits. He suggested that the mature way to look at AI is to view it as a tool to improve productivity, not just a tool to save costs. Felton said the value of AI lies in creating “richer customer experiences, better products, and more revenue-generating functions.” He added that within his team, “AI is an excellent tool to reduce the burden” and allows team professionals to “reinvest their time into more high value-added work.”
