The idea
I believe AI capability is leaping ahead fastest in code, math, and cyber, where results are checkable and already worth real money, even though most people still just see a chatbot. So this leans into what powers and profits from that shift: compute and memory at the core, cloud platforms tied to frontier labs, usage-priced infrastructure software, and security built for machine-speed attacks, while skipping seat-priced apps that agents could just replace.
What it owns
- Agents running for hours on big coding and math problems burn far more compute than chat, so the chip, memory and networking suppliers get paid first. · NVIDIAIts GPUs train and run most of the long-running coding work that frontier labs and clouds deploy, as long as in-house chips don't take over the bulk of agent workloads., BroadcomIt designs custom AI chips for big labs and clouds and sells networking gear, so it gets paid whether agent workloads run on NVIDIA or in-house silicon, as long as labs keep ordering at growing volumes., Taiwan SemiconductorNearly every advanced AI chip from NVIDIA, AMD, Broadcom and cloud in-house designs gets made here, so more compute for coding agents means more orders, as long as it stays the main factory for leading AI chips., Micron TechnologyTraining and serving agents eats huge amounts of high-bandwidth memory stacked next to AI chips, and it is one of only a few makers, as long as HBM demand stays tight and it keeps its share against competitors., Advanced Micro DevicesIt is the main second source for AI GPUs, so labs that want options besides NVIDIA spend here as agent workloads grow, as long as big customers keep deploying its AI chips at real scale., Arista NetworksGiant AI clusters need fast networking to tie thousands of chips together, and it sells much of that gear to big clouds, as long as cloud and lab data center spending keeps growing.38%
- The public companies that host and own stakes in OpenAI and Anthropic collect cloud revenue every time a frontier agent runs. · MicrosoftIt owns a stake in OpenAI, rents Azure cloud for its models, and runs GitHub where agent-written code lives, as long as Azure AI revenue keeps growing and GitHub stays central to coding agents., AlphabetIt builds frontier models with Gemini, makes its own TPU chips, and holds a stake in Anthropic whose models power coding agents, as long as Google Cloud AI revenue grows and Gemini stays among the top models for code and math., AmazonAWS backs Anthropic and rents the compute that agent workloads run on, so heavy agent use shows up as AWS revenue, as long as AWS growth gets a lift from AI and the Anthropic partnership holds., CoreWeaveIt rents out GPU capacity mostly to frontier labs, making it one of the most direct ways to own their spending on compute, though it depends on a few big customers and borrowed money.25%
- Software priced by usage, not by human seats, grows as agents write and ship more code that needs databases, monitoring and edge delivery. · DatadogAs agents write more code and companies ship more software, they need more monitoring to catch what breaks, and it charges by usage not by seat, as long as usage-based revenue keeps growing with software volume., CloudflareIt sits between apps and the internet so a surge in agent traffic and agent-built apps runs through its network and gets billed by usage, as long as revenue keeps growing with traffic and its edge AI tools get real adoption., SnowflakeIt charges for the data storage and computing customers actually use, so more agents querying and building on company data means more revenue, as long as consumption growth holds and AI workloads become a growing share., MongoDBEvery new app agents spin up needs a database, and its Atlas charges by usage so more apps built means more revenue, but it stays only if Atlas growth picks up from AI-built apps.16%
- Automated vulnerability detection and response operate faster than human teams, making this capability essential infrastructure for enterprises managing complex systems. · CrowdStrikeAgents that write code can also run attacks at machine speed, and its AI-based endpoint defense is built to answer that threat, as long as recurring revenue keeps growing and customers consolidate security onto its platform., Palo Alto NetworksFaster automated attacks push companies to fold many security tools into one platform, and it is the biggest company doing that consolidation, as long as platform deals keep growing and AI-driven threats keep security budgets rising., ZscalerIt checks every connection before letting it through using zero trust, which matters more once agents and machines log into company systems, as long as it keeps growing recurring revenue from agent and machine traffic.13%
