A new technology has sparked a modern-day gold rush in Silicon Valley. OpenAI’s Sam Altman invested $375M. Bill Gates has backed four companies in this space. The World Economic Forum calls it “the most exciting human discovery since fire.” Whitney Tilson believes this trend could mint a new class of wealthy investors—and he’s sharing one stock to watch now, for free.
