Everspin Technologies, Inc. (MRAM) Secures $10.5M Contract for MRAM-Based AI Computing with Purdue Consortium

We recently compiled a list of the 12 AI News and Ratings Investors Probably Missed. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Everspin Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:MRAM) stands against the other AI stocks.

AI is transforming industries at a very fast pace, with businesses integrating AI agents to improve efficiency and customer interactions. Bret Taylor, co-founder of Sierra and chairman of OpenAI’s board, discussed the significance of Western leadership in AI innovation, the evolving role of AI in businesses, and the growing competition in the global market in a CNBC interview on March 6.

AI Advancements and the Importance of Western Leadership

Bret Taylor emphasized the need for the Western world to lead in AI innovation, pointing toward its impact on businesses and society. He compared AI agents to past technological shifts like websites and mobile apps, predicting that AI-driven customer interactions will soon become standard. He explained the AI market as having two main components including infrastructure providers like OpenAI, which builds foundational models, and application developers such as Sierra, Harvey, and Cursor, which create AI-driven solutions for industries like customer service, legal, and software development.

Taylor also acknowledged the global competition and that many countries are investing in AI but stressed that Western leadership is crucial to ensure AI models reflect values like freedom and self-expression. While European governments seek more technological independence due to geopolitical factors, he sees a strong demand for US-based AI solutions in Europe and remains optimistic about collaboration. He also views the declining costs of AI as a driver for wider adoption, making advanced AI applications more accessible.

Finally, Taylor discussed the broader implications of AI, as he envisions it transforming education with personalized tutoring, improving healthcare accessibility, and improving industries like software engineering and customer service. He remains optimistic about AI’s societal benefits despite concerns about rapid adoption. Lastly, he highlighted the importance of continued investment in U.S. AI infrastructure, such as Stargate, to support future advancements in AI research and deployment.

The $250 Trillion AI Hype is Real. A few years from now, you’ll probably wish you’d bought this stock.

When Jeff Bezos said that one breakthrough technology would shape Amazon’s destiny, even Wall Street’s biggest analysts were caught off guard.

Fast forward a year and Amazon’s new CEO Andy Jassy described generative AI as a “once-in-a-lifetime” technology that is already being used across Amazon to reinvent customer experiences.

At the 8th Future Investment Initiative conference, Elon Musk predicted that by 2040 there would be at least 10 billion humanoid robots, with each priced between $20,000 and $25,000.

Do the math. According to Musk, this technology could be worth $250 trillion by 2040.

Put another way, that’s roughly equal to:

  • 175 Teslas
  • 107 Amazons
  • 140 Metas
  • 84 Googles
  • 65 Microsofts
  • And 55 Nvidias

And here’s the wild part — this $250 trillion wave isn’t tied to one company, but to an entire ecosystem of AI innovators set to reshape the global economy.

It’s a leap so massive, it could reshape how businesses, governments, and consumers operate worldwide.

Even if that $250 trillion figure sounds ambitious, major firms like PwC and McKinsey still see AI unlocking multi-trillion-dollar potential.

How could anything be worth that much?

The answer lies in a breakthrough so powerful it’s redefining how humanity works, learns, and creates.

And this breakthrough has already set off a frenzy among hedge funds and Wall Street’s top investors.

What most investors don’t realize is that one under-owned company holds the key to this $250 trillion revolution.

In fact, Verge argues this company’s supercheap AI technology should concern rivals.

Before I reveal the details, let’s talk about how some of the richest people on the planet are positioning themselves.

  • Bill Gates sees artificial intelligence as the “biggest technological advance in my lifetime,” more transformative than the internet or personal computer, capable of improving healthcare, education, and addressing climate change.
  • Larry Ellison — through Oracle, is spending billions on Nvidia chips and partnering with Cohere to embed generative AI across Oracle’s cloud and apps.
  • Warren Buffett — not known for tech hype — says this breakthrough could have a ‘hugely beneficial social impact.

When billionaires from Silicon Valley to Wall Street line up behind the same idea — you know it’s worth paying attention to.

Even as we admire what Tesla, Nvidia, Alphabet, and Microsoft have built, we believe an even greater opportunity lies elsewhere…

But the real story isn’t Nvidia — it’s a much smaller company quietly improving the critical technology that makes this entire revolution possible.

And judging by what I’m hearing from both Silicon Valley insiders and Wall Street veterans…

This prediction might not be bold at all:
