Artificial intelligence (AI) is evolving, and the next big trend in the technology is agentic AI -- software that can be given somewhat complex tasks to perform and then handle them independently with little to no additional human oversight.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is evolving, and the next big trend in the technology is agentic AI -- software that can be given somewhat complex tasks to perform and then handle them independently with little to no additional human oversight. There should be a number of winners across this trend, including within the chip, cloud computing, and software spaces. I believe these three companies will be among the biggest beneficiaries in each of these areas. While AI model training requires the parallel processing muscle of large numbers of powerful graphics processing units (GPUs), agentic AI needs more central processing units (CPUs), which are designed for sequential processing. As Intel CFO David Zinsner recently explained, because of that shift in usage toward agentic AI, the ratio of GPUs to CPUs in data centers, which not long ago was 8 to 1, and is currently 4 to 1, is headed toward 1 to 1.

Flesh-Eating Screwworm Detected In Texas, Threatening Already-Strained U.S. Cattle Herd Concerns over the New World screwworm (NWS) have been building for the last 12 months as the deadly cattle parasite spread through Mexico and the Trump administration attempted to prevent its spread into the U.S. Those concerns have now turned into red alerts after the USDA confirmed a single case in Texas, marking the first U.S. detection in years. " A case of NWS may have been detected in South Texas . The sample is now at USDA's National Veterinary Services Laboratories (NVSL) in Ames, lowa for confirmatory testing. We will provide updates the moment results are available," USDA wrote on X. A case of NWS may have been detected in South Texas.

The detection of NWS in the U.S. would be a direct biological and economic shock to the cattle herd if the spread were rampant, given that the nation’s herd is already at a 75-year low , beef prices are at recor...

SpaceX's long-awaited public debut could rank among the most significant stock offerings in history, according to Brett Winton, chief futurist at ARK Invest, who argues the company's satellite internet business alone can justify a valuation approaching $2 trillion. Elon Musk's rocket and satellite company set an IPO price of $135 a share, valuing SpaceX at roughly $1.77 trillion ahead of its planned Nasdaq debut on June 12. "It does not surprise me that they are targeting a valuation in excess of and close to $2 trillion," Winton said Thursday on CNBC's "Squawk Box. " "The AI opportunity is ginormous." SpaceX said it plans to sell 555.6 million shares, which would amount to a $75 billion fundraise. The underwriters have an option to purchase an additional 83.33 million shares at the IPO price, amounting to $11.2 billion. Musk will own over 82% voting control after the offering. Winton said SpaceX's growth prospects extend far beyond launch services and are closely tied to the rapid expansion of artificial intelligence. ARK estimates that companies developing and operating foundation AI models could collectively generate between $15 trillion and $20 trillion in enterprise value by 2030. "I think this historical moment is going to be looked back upon as the critical technological inflection, maybe in the history of humanity," Winton said. ARK is already heavily exposed to SpaceX through its venture strategy. The ARK Venture Fund's largest holding is private shares of SpaceX, which represented about 11.4% of assets. The fund has gained roughly 15% this year and more than 70% over the past 12 months. ARKVX 1Y mountain Ark Venture Fund one year While investors often focus on SpaceX's reusable rockets, Winton said the company's Starlink satellite broadband network is the primary driver of ARK's valuation thesis. According to Winton, Starlink currently operates a constellation capable of delivering roughly 500 terabits per second of bandwidth and generates about $13 billio...
