🚨 Arthur Hayes thinks the AI boom could end with taxpayers footing the bill.

His warning: within 12–18 months, AI data centers could come under pressure as customers struggle to pay, potentially hitting insurers and ordinary policyholders.

Hayes predicts that could lead to a multitrillion-dollar government bailout in 2027–2028.

Could AI trigger the next massive bailout?
