Artificial intelligence is all the rage right now, thanks to the rise of ChatGPT. If you’re ready to invest in AI technology, here are a few ways to get into AI investing.
It’s safe to say that ChatGPT has been a smash hit since it was released to the public in November 2022. The artificial intelligence (AI)-powered language processing tool reached 100 million active users just two months after launch. For context, it took TikTok nine months to reach 100 million.
The buzz and novelty around ChatGPT have also benefited AI companies and their stocks. In fact, since the release of ChatGPT, shares of AI companies like Baidu (BIDU), SoundHound AI (SOUN), and C3.ai (AI) have soared in the months that followed as investors joined the AI craze.
So, if you believe AI is set to take over the world and want to ride on the AI wave, below are a few ways to invest in AI with Webull.

How to buy AI stocks and ETFs on Webull
If you're looking to invest in AI stocks and ETFs, you'll need to open an online brokerage account. Ideally, you'll want to choose one that aligns with your investment goals, such as product offerings, safety, features, promotions, commission, and account fees.

Why you should invest in a cash management account
If you’re a conservative investor, here’s a ‘safer’ way to invest: a cash management account.
A good example is Webull’s cash management account, Moneybull, which allows you to invest your idle cash and earn up to 4.52%^ 7-day yield p.a., which is higher than most high-yield interest accounts.
Moneybull is a wealth management tool designed for margin accounts to earn a yield on idle cash while maintaining liquidity and low risk. Your funds are invested in underlying cash funds, which are essentially mutual funds that invest in short-term debt securities which have very low risk.

You’ll never have to feel FOMO on market trends while your funds are parked elsewhere. In fact, you can rest assured that your cash is working round the clock for you.
