Did you spot this in the Oval Office last week? (Ad)

When Tim Cook stood in the Oval Office last week, all eyes were on the "unique 24K gold gift" he presented to President Trump. But many viewers missed an even more important moment in that 30-second clip. One that unmistakably singled out what Futurist Eric Fry calls "possibly the best AI investment anyone could make right now." Eric believes this little-known partner to Apple could go crazy over the next 12-24 months, potentially leaving well-known AI stocks like Nvidia, Microsoft and Google in the dust.tc pixel
