AI Is Helping With Semiconductor Design, and This Little-Known Software Stock Is Poised to Benefit

Artificial intelligence (AI) -- a computing system that attempts to imitate the way the human mind processes information and solves problems -- has been around for decades. Companies across all industries see the potential to supercharge their performance if they put these new computing systems to work and are investing in new projects accordingly. Behind every AI system is a powerful semiconductor, so chip stocks have rightly attracted a lot of attention in recent months.
