ChatGPT picks 2 AI stocks to turn $100 into $1,000 by 2026

The artificial intelligence (AI) sector has been evolving rapidly so far this year and is likely to continue influencing the stock market next year as well, so we had ChatGPT identify 2 AI stocks with the potential to turn a $100 investment into $1,000 by 2026.

While a 900% return in about 7 months might seem unrealistic, the hype around AI and the two artificial intelligence stocks that ChatGPT chose might very well make it possible.

SoundHound AI (NASDAQ: SOUN)

The first pick was SoundHound AI (NASDAQ: SOUN), a voice AI company with partnerships in a number of industries, most notably automotive and consumer electronics.

As Edge AI continues to grow, it is precisely these industries that stand to benefit the most from the kinds of AI solutions provided by SoundHound.

ChatGPT noted SoundHound‘s recent momentum generated primarily by the company’s collaboration with Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA), the AI sector leader, and its growing focus on enterprise solutions.

Likewise, the company continues to grow its revenue, which saw 151.24% growth as per the quarterly reports shared on March 31.

As of now, SOUN shares are trading at $10.12, with a 10.13% increase in the past 30 days.

The second pick was Symbotic (NASDAQ: SYM), a robotics and AI automation firm.

ChatGPT highlighted Symbotics long-term contracts and partnerships, for example, with Walmart (NYSE: WMT), its revenue growth ($549.65 million for the quarter ending with March 2025), and strong industrial demand.

Indeed, if adoption accelerates and AI-driven logistics become more of a norm, the stock could deliver substantial gains in the near future.

At the time of writing, SYM was trading at $29.59, up about 1.3% on the day and nearly 29% in the past month.

ChatGPT stressed that both SoundHound AI and Symbotic operate in a fast-moving, volatile sector. While the potential profit is huge, so is the potential for losses. Accordingly, due diligence and research are mandatory before investing.
