European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde said investment tied to artificial intelligence is increasing in Europe, though it still remains behind the United States. In a post on social media, Lagarde said unlocking AI’s productivity potential will require substantial capital spending. She also cited a European Central Bank survey showing that euro area companies expect to allocate about 10% of their total investment to artificial intelligence in 2026. The remarks point to growing corporate interest in AI across the region, while also highlighting the gap that still exists between Europe and the U.S. in AI-related investment. Lagarde’s comments were published via the ECB’s social media account.
