Blackstone president rejects AI bubble fears, calling demand 'parabolic'

Blackstone President Jon Gray has dismissed concerns over an artificial intelligence bubble, characterizing current demand for the technology as "almost parabolic." Speaking on Bloomberg Television following the private equity firm's third-quarter financial results, Gray emphasized that investment opportunities surrounding AI infrastructure and technology remain exceptionally strong.

His comments come amid broader debates across financial markets regarding whether valuations in the tech sector have become overextended. However, Gray pointed to sustained underlying demand for computing power and data centers as evidence of genuine fundamental growth rather than speculative excess. Blackstone continues to position itself to capture opportunities driven by the rapid expansion of AI services.
