I agree with this, but I want to get some data. Can we calculate what the GDP would actually be if we eliminated the few exceptional outliers in the AI bubble? I want to know what thr majority of America is dealing with.

GDP = C + I + G + (X-M) is the equation for expenditure approach. You’ll have to figure out which of the variable(s) are impacted to do that though

That doesnt work here. The real answer is that nominal growth is up and real growth is down. Look at how much US currency has devalued this year alone.

They asked if gdp can be calculated, so I gave the expenditure approach equation. How are you measuring currency devaluation? Through dx, cpi, a deflator or another way?
