格隆汇12月8日｜据彭博，华尔街对人工智能相关企业的态度正在转变，这一切都围绕两家公司： OpenAI失势，而Alphabet崛起。 ChatGPT的制造商不再被视为人工智能技术的尖端力量，并面临关于其缺乏盈利能力以及需要快速增长 以支付巨额开支承诺的质疑。与此同时，谷歌母公司正崛起为资金雄厚、触角遍及人工智能各领域的竞 争者。"Alphabet的竞争优势不仅在于Gemini人工智能模型，更因其拥有充沛现金流和众多关联业务， 使其成为人工智能赛道中资金雄厚的竞争者。" 这一转变在幅度和速度上都极为剧烈。就在几周前，OpenAl还能引发与其相关的任何公司出现大幅上 涨，如今这种关联却更像是一种拖累。考虑到这家非上市公司在推动股市三年涨势的人工智能热潮中占 据的核心地位，这一变化具有深远影响。 因此，与OpenA1相关的公司股票--主要包括甲骨文公司、CoreWeave和超微半导体公司，以及持有其 11%股份的微软公司、英伟达公司和软银集团--正面临沉重的抛售压力。与此同时，Alphabet的增长势 头不仅推高了其自身股价，还带动了相关企业如博通公司、Lumentum控股公司、CelesticaInc.和TTM科 ...

Alphabet stock is soaring, and it could go even higher in 2026.Alphabet (GOOG +1.16%)(GOOGL +1.09%) has made an impressive turnaround this year. In April, its share price sank as low as $141. It's currently sitting above $300 and is up nearly 69% year to date (as of Dec. 5).There's understandable trepidation about investing in stocks after this rate of growth. But the parent company of Google remains an excellent investment, and there's one reason in particular it could continue to do well. Alphabet's AI st ...
