AI as a game changer in the stock market

AI is revolutionizing various industries and will have a bottom-line impact on companies by allowing them to streamline workflows and cut costs. Companies like Microsoft and Tesla are leveraging AI to boost their productivity and deliver gains. While AI will destroy some jobs, it will mainly affect white-collar roles and those in service-oriented sectors. Blue-collar workers will be largely insulated. The adoption of AI will lead to deflation on the business side, allowing companies to cut costs and potentially lower prices. Overall, AI offers bottom-line and top-line benefits to companies and has significant implications for investors.
