Mrs. Jessica Morgan+FollowIs AI Really Propping Up the Economy?Everyone’s buzzing about AI saving the U.S. economy, but here’s the real scoop: it’s your shopping sprees and daily spending that are keeping things afloat. Sure, tech giants are pouring cash into AI and building mega data centers, but most of that fancy hardware is imported, so it doesn’t boost the economy as much as you’d think. Bottom line: your Target runs and coffee splurges matter more than the latest robot hype! #Business #MoneyTalks #ConsumerPower00Share

If the economy hits a speed bump, these spots could be in real trouble—think fewer local diners, vanishing small-town stores, and your favorite creators scrambling if TikTok changes the rules. If you work or invest in these areas, maybe it’s time for a plan B (or at least a rainy day fund). #Business #Market #MarkCuban00Share
