Artificial intelligence (AI<\/a>) could create some enormous winners over the next decade.<\/p>\n

But rather than trying to predict which individual companies will come out on top, I’d prefer to invest in a selection of businesses that could benefit from its growth.<\/p>\n

The good news is that exchange traded funds (ETFs<\/a>) make this possible. But which ones could be worth considering as buys? Listed below are three to choose between for easy AI exposure:<\/p>\n

Global X Semiconductor ETF (ASX: SEMI<\/a>)<\/p>\n

The first ETF I’d buy is the Global X Semiconductor ETF, which invests in companies involved in developing and manufacturing computer chips.<\/p>\n

This could be an attractive way to invest in AI because the technology<\/a> requires enormous computing power, and that means strong demand for increasingly advanced semiconductors.<\/p>\n

The fund holds around 30 companies, including Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA<\/a>), whose powerful processors are widely used to train and run AI models.<\/p>\n

It also owns South Korean memory chip manufacturer SK Hynix (NASDAQ: SKHY<\/a>) and ASML Holding (NASDAQ: ASML<\/a>), which supplies essential equipment used to manufacture advanced chips.<\/p>\n

What I like is that these businesses can benefit from rising AI infrastructure spending, regardless of which software companies ultimately become the biggest winners.<\/p>\n

With investment in AI computing continuing to grow, this ETF could potentially deliver attractive long-term returns.<\/p>\n

Global X Artificial Intelligence ETF (ASX: GXAI<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Another ASX ETF I would consider is the Global X Artificial Intelligence ETF, which provides exposure to companies involved in developing and applying AI technology.<\/p>\n

Unlike the semiconductor ETF, this fund invests across the AI industry, including software developers, cloud computing providers and hardware manufacturers.<\/p>\n

Among its holdings are Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ: PLTR<\/a>), which helps organisations analyse data and deploy AI, and Oracle (NYSE: ORCL<\/a>), which provides the cloud infrastructure needed to run demanding AI applications.<\/p>\n

It also owns Samsung Electronics, giving investors exposure to semiconductor manufacturing.<\/p>\n

I think this approach makes sense because the financial benefits of AI are unlikely to be limited to a handful of companies.<\/p>\n

As more businesses adopt the technology, there should be opportunities for companies supplying the software, infrastructure and services needed to make it work.<\/p>\n

Global X FANG+ ETF (ASX: FANG<\/a>)<\/p>\n

A final ETF to consider buying is the Global X FANG+ ETF, which invests in 10 leading US technology and technology-related companies.<\/p>\n

Its holdings include Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT<\/a>), Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN<\/a>) and Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOGL<\/a>).<\/p>\n

These businesses are investing heavily in AI, but they also have established operations and enormous customer bases that could help them turn the technology into additional revenue.<\/p>\n

For example, Microsoft and Amazon can benefit from businesses spending more on AI through their cloud computing platforms. Alphabet, meanwhile, is incorporating AI into products used by billions of people.<\/p>\n

I believe these companies are well placed to benefit as AI becomes more widely adopted.<\/p>\n

And although the fund is concentrated and shares several holdings with the other ETFs, I think it offers a good way to invest in some of the companies commercialising AI on a global scale.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Artificial intelligence (AI) could create some enormous winners over the next decade.
