AI and Robotics ETFs Are Hotter for Traders Than Crypto in 2023

[ad_1] The popularity of artificial intelligence-powered chatbots like ChatGPT is catching the eye of exchange-traded fund investors looking for exposure to the space.A majority of professional investors, 56%, are planning to add AI- and robotics-focused ETF strategies to their portfolios this year, according to a survey by Brown Brothers Harriman released on Monday.

ETFs tracking robotics and AI have pulled in roughly $105 million in March, while other thematic strategies like clean energy, elec...
