AI Exposure Without the Hype: 3 ETFs That Offer Smarter AI Bets

Though it's far from a new approach, many exchange-traded funds (ETFs) aiming to provide exposure to the much-hyped artificial intelligence (AI) space tend to lean fairly heavily on a small number of big names. NVIDIA Corp. NASDAQ: NVDA, for example, is the single largest holding of the popular Global X Robotics & Artificial Intelligence ETF NASDAQ: BOTZ fund, representing nearly 12% of the entire portfolio.

ROBT: The Risk-Light Option Of AI Funds

I recommend buying ROBT for conservative investors seeking AI growth, as its portfolio, with only 20.5% in the top 10, emphasizes keeping capital intact. ROBT's spread exposure to technology and industrials is optimally positioned to benefit from the $4.8 Tn expansion of the AI industry by 2033, powered by corporate take-up and M&A. With holdings in the form of Upstart Holdings and Meta Platforms, ROBT anchors small-cap ingenuity with large-cap security, shielding against market correction against AIQ's 70% weighting to technology.
