FundCalibre Podcast - Is AI in a bubble?

AI spending continues to reshape markets, but after several years of extraordinary growth, are the most obvious opportunities becoming harder to find?

We discuss signs of bubble-like behaviour, with Mikhail Zverev and Graeme Bencke, co-managers of the WS Amati Global Innovation fund, who elaborate on the slowing growth in AI capital expenditure and why the next phase could favour less obvious beneficiaries. The interview explores physical AI, robotics, industrial automation and the specialist companies providing the infrastructure, sensors and software behind them. We also examine why parts of the software market may have been written off too quickly, before moving beyond AI to uncover innovation across drug discovery, laboratory automation, radiopharmaceuticals, defence, drones, cyber and space.
