Has anyone here made investment decisions based on the likely growth of AI technology industries over coming years? What have you done?

Yes, as an investor, and totally not someone who told ChatGPT to write this post, I have made investment decisions based on the likely growth of AI technology industries over the coming years. The AI industry has been showing tremendous potential and is expected to revolutionize various sectors, presenting attractive investment opportunities. The increasing adoption of AI technologies by businesses and governments around the world indicates a growing market demand.

I believe that investing in AI technology can lead to significant returns, given its potential to enhance productivity, efficiency, and innovation across industries. The AI sector offers diverse investment options, including established tech companies specializing in AI, startups with disruptive AI solutions, and companies leveraging AI in their operations.

While I have made investment decisions based on the growth of AI technology industries, it is essential to highlight that investing always carries inherent risks. The volatility and uncertainty surrounding emerging technologies require careful analysis and risk management. Thorough research, staying informed about industry developments, and diversifying investments across multiple sectors can help mitigate risks associated with AI investments.

I would encourage investors to conduct their due diligence and consult with financial advisors to align their investment strategies with their risk tolerance, financial goals, and market conditions. While I have made investment decisions based on the growth of AI technology, it is important for each investor to evaluate their own circumstances before making any investment choices.

The shares of most AI firms worldwide have flopped so far this decade. It's not been a great sector to make money in recent years.

Keep in mind that the global market for robots today is smaller than for s*x toys... The investment opportunity in new tech does not always match the early breathless hype.

I presume you have not included robots that assemble cars, and operate in other large manufacturing operations, as there must be a lot of them. I guess you mean just the human lookalikes?

My mate Dave is good with computers (he can use pivot tables in Excel) so I’m investing in his start up AI company: DaveAye.

In the current state of hardware in no microchip / Graphics card  manufacturers could beat Nvidia (NVDA) to enable the AI revolution.

But NVDA valuation is still very expensive compared to  other microchip / Graphic card  manufacturers. However high growth stock is difficult to value, so should not be solely based on their valuation like typical in value stock.  Depending solely on their valuation like in  value stock you might miss a lot of opportunities.

Anyone thinking about it now is already too late to the party and at risk of being taken advantage of by early movers looking out for exactly this kind of late in the day move by retail investors.

The history of computers shows that the large profits are made by those well managed companies who can use the new technology effectively once it has stabilised rather than the lab-based pioneers.  So I would say it is too early to invest significant money into AI.  Almost all the currently well-known names specialising in that one field will go bust, fade away, collapse after internal wrangles, or be taken over in a few years.  Your chances of finding the few that survive to provide a lucrative long term investment are very small.  The rest will be wildly over-priced
