➢ Total spending on broadband equipment in 2023 is expected to show a decline of around 10%.

➢ Early projections for 2024 indicate an additional 5% YOY decrease as the lagging impact of interest rate increases to curb inflation will be felt more acutely. That would put total spending at around $16.5 billion, roughly equal to 2021 spending levels.

➢ Very early signals regarding 2024 show a return to growth as BEAD and other subsidization efforts trickle down to suppliers.

“One of the reasons the FTC and its counterparts in other jurisdictions have been focused on AI and competition is because what we want is to unlock the potential of this technology and have it grow in the markets through good innovation and businesses coming to market with great products and not be limited by a few gatekeepers who control access to some of the core inputs, both whether it is data or compute or other elements of generative AI.

– FTC Commissioner Rebecca Slaughter speaking at CES on how the agency views AI
