## Citrini Research claims
Citrini Research estimates annualized hyperscaler AI spending is nearing $1 trillion as broader AI ecosystem revenue reaches at least $200 billion.
## Slower investment growth
Citrini points to slower quarterly growth in remaining performance obligations as leading AI labs slow their commitments.
## Hyperscaler spending plans
Amazon expects $220 billion in cash capital expenditures for 2026 with higher cash capex in 2027, while Microsoft's commercial RPO stood at $677 billion as of Sept. 30.
## Key takeaway

Citrini Research says AI infrastructure capex growth may have peaked with hyperscaler spending nearing $1 trillion annually.
