James Durance of Fidelity International is avoiding AI bonds. According to Sina Finance, the London-based portfolio manager, who oversees $14 billion, has kept his technology exposure in his income strategy below 2% while hyperscale cloud providers issue debt to fund the artificial intelligence boom. He said lending to the sector could swell to a size that poses risk by itself by the end of next year. Speaking in Singapore, Durance said he is not enthusiastic about the technology sector's rapid growth in the bond market and does not like it at current price levels. Amazon and Alphabet Inc. are among the companies borrowing heavily to invest in AI, competing with U.S. Treasuries for funding and pushing up long-term yields. According to Sina Finance, despite uncertain returns and safety concerns that have prompted some large-company executives to call for a slower pace of AI development, the wave of issuance has shown little sign of easing. Durance is the lead manager of Fidelity's Global Income, Global Short Duration Income and Global High Income strategies, and co-manager of the European High Yield strategy. His global income and short-duration funds are not constrained by benchmark indexes. He said benchmark fund managers may face increasing underweights if they do not buy, while his team does not need to. His short-duration fund returned 6.7% over the three years through August. The caution appears to have been justified. Over the past year, a Bloomberg technology corporate bond index has fallen more than 2%, while the broader global aggregate bond index has declined 1.3%.

AI trust layer and frontier AI lab 0G has launched a new financial layer for AI called Compute Finance, or ComFi, designed to let users earn usable AI compute. According to Foresight News, in the ComFi model, digital assets can generate compute usage rights that can be spent across various AI services. 0G also launched its liquid staking product Ascend and the new compute-based digital asset Infinite AI (iAI). The company said iAI is scheduled for an official launch on September 29. Users can stake 0G through Ascend to receive a0G, use a0G to mint iAI, and then restake eligible iAI to earn compute points. Those points can be used for supported 0G AI products.

0G has launched Compute Finance, a financial layer built around AI computing power, and introduced its liquid staking product Ascend. The company also plans to launch the computing-power-based digital asset Infinite AI on September 29. According to Odaily, users can stake 0G to receive a0G, mint and stake iAI to obtain computing-power quotas, and use those quotas for products including 0G Private Computer and 0G App. Under the initial parameters, eligible staked iAI can receive daily computing-power quotas with a nominal usage value of more than $1. The quotas can only be used for designated AI services and cannot be exchanged for cash or represent interest or guaranteed returns. 0G co-founder and CEO Michael Heinrich said equity brought dividends, proof-of-work created new participation incentives, and DeFi expanded the use cases for digital assets. He said Compute Finance connects digital assets with the right to use AI computing power, and that Ascend and Infinite AI are the first implementations of this idea.
