In part 1 of this blog series, we talked about how WisdomTree classifies Artificial Intelligence (AI) companies as part of the NASDAQ CTA Artificial Intelligence Index. Within this bespoke index, experts select key AI companies which are then classified as engagers, enablers and enhancers.
The enhancers within the Index can be arrayed across a few major categories based on their activities and focus. A few applications of AI that enhancers within the methodology are actively working on are:
- Cloud Computing
- Autonomous Driving
- Drug Development & Generative Design
In the video below, we take a look at some of these key companies and how they are enhancing the AI ecosystem:
