Having said that, if I were to choose just one stock to invest in AI, it would have to be Amazon ( AMZN -0.32%). It offers an excellent combination of growth potential and safety, and there's a solid case to be made that it is the most attractively valued of the megacap tech stocks right now.

Two hot stocks in this sector are Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ: PLTR) and SoundHound AI (NASDAQ: SOUN). Palantir's shares had surged by more than 300% over the prior 12 months, while SoundHound had skyrocketed by 600%.

Considering how well artificial intelligence (AI) stocks have done over the past two years, it's hard to imagine some of them going even higher. However, this industry still has significant tailwinds as we have barely scratched the surface of what is possible with AI.
