Artificial intelligence (AI), including machine learning and deep learning, leverages computers to conduct tasks that would otherwise require human intelligence. It enables machines to learn, adjust to new inputs and perform tasks similar to humans. AI stocks have been garnering tremendous attention from investors.
Many technology firms use AI to make their business operations more robust through high-profile applications, including robotic process automation, robotics, and virtual assistants. Some companies also gain from AI through the sales of software, hardware, services, and expertise required for the proper functioning of the technology. Its plethora of applications across a number of sectors is further boosting investor interest in the technology. The rise in the number of publicly-listed AI firms underlines the growing trend and rising investor interest in the field.
