Cushman & Wakefield has published a new industry analysis tool, the AI Impact Barometer, designed to quantify “AI momentum” and translate it into implications for commercial real estate demand across data centers, industrial and office markets. The model combines economic, capital markets and property indicators to track AI adoption, investment, labor shifts and infrastructure needs, with early findings pointing to sustained strength in data center development, higher-power bulk distribution facilities positioned for automation-driven leasing, and widening polarization in office markets as prime tech-hub assets improve while lower-quality space faces rising obsolescence risk.
