Another reason the AI bubble can burst in 2025 is due to the expected resolution of GPU scarcity that's sent Nvidia's stock into the stratosphere.

But these three laggards should see long-term growth from AI, and they look like great buys for 2025 and beyond. As in 2023, investors were once again captivated by the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in 2024.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has been one of the hottest trends in the technology sector over the past couple of years, and that's not surprising as this disruptive technology has been positively impacting multiple companies across several industries.

Market researcher IDC forecasts that global AI-related spending could hit $337 billion next year and jump to a whopping $749 billion by 2028. As a result, technology companies selling AI-related hardware and software should ideally witness healthy growth in their businesses next year.

It's an important lesson in business -- companies that fail to adapt fall behind. One familiar example is Blockbuster Video, which could have purchased Netflix for $50 million, but the CEO didn't see any value in the idea.

The artificial intelligence (AI) revolution represents a fundamental transformation that may be unprecedented in human history. This technological shift promises to reshape how society operates and create value across every sector of the economy.
