Artificial intelligence is transforming the global economy—but AI doesn't run on software alone. It requires massive investments in power generation, data centers, fiber networks, utilities, and digital infrastructure to make it all possible.In this episode of the Dividend Stockpile, I'm joined by Rob Thummel from Tortoise Capital to discuss the TCAI ETF and why they believe the biggest AI investment opportunity may not be the AI companies themselves—but the infrastructure that powers them.During our conversation, we cover:- Why AI is creating unprecedented demand for infrastructure- The critical role of electricity, utilities, and data centers in the AI revolution- How TCAI is positioned to capitalize on long-term AI infrastructure growth- Why investing in the "picks and shovels" of AI could provide a compelling opportunity- The sectors and companies driving the buildout of AI infrastructure- How TCAI can fit into a diversified long-term investment portfolioAs AI adoption accelerates across nearly every industry, the need for reliable infrastructure is expected to grow alongside it. This interview explores why some investors believe the companies enabling AI may become just as important as the companies building AI.If you're interested in AI investing, thematic ETFs, infrastructure investing, or discovering long-term investment opportunities beyond the Magnificent Seven, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.
