The artificial intelligence (AI) boom has investors wondering how they can benefit from what some experts believe is the next revolutionary technology. AI has the potential to drastically change how we live and work on a daily basis.

What are AI ETFs?

Artificial intelligence ETFs hold the stocks of many different companies involved in various aspects of the AI industry. By investing in a basket of stocks, ETFs generally come with less risk than holding just a few individual stocks.

The stocks held in AI ETFs may include some of the largest tech companies in the world such as Microsoft ( MSFT ), Alphabet or Nvidia ( NVDA ). While some of these stocks have performed phenomenally well in recent years, the performance of an AI ETF will depend on the underlying stocks it holds and how much the fund has allocated toward the top performers.
