Artificial intelligence is transforming our world at a rapid pace, and early investors in AI companies have reaped substantial rewards. Nvidia in particular has seen its stock price multiply enormously in just a few short months. It’s understandable why investors want to maintain exposure to the tech sector, despite rising interest rates.
Nvidia stands out as a current leader in AI. However, after such dramatic gains, its opportunity may have peaked for now. Those seeking the next big thing could look to Apple and Spotify, tech giants with underestimated AI potential. Coincidentally, both compete in music streaming and could evolve their offerings through generative AI.
Apple is refocusing after iPhone sales fell short of expectations. While it dropped from its $3 trillion valuation, writing off Apple would be a mistake considering its potential as a top AI innovator over the next decade. Apple may not discuss AI as prominently as peers, yet it has achieved significant, if understated, progress. Its Siri assistant admittedly lags the capabilities of ChatGPT, but Discovery station enhances its challenge to Spotify’s dominance. If Apple follows its pattern, major AI announcements may come when least expected.
Spotify also invests heavily in AI to strengthen its service against growing competition. Loyal users praise its discovery algorithms, making defection harder. While second quarter results pulled its stock lower, long-term opportunities from expanding features like AI DJ and text-to-speech acquisitions weren’t reflected.
In volatile times, Apple and Spotify appear firmly committed to leveraging AI advantages. With shares recently pulled back alongside tech indexes, these discounted prices could give investors access to thriving platforms well-positioned for AI’s emergence.
