The artificial intelligence story shows no signs of cooling. Instead, according to McKinsey the AI market could swell to $17 trillion to $25 trillion by 2030. In addition, AI related spending will make up about 8% to 10% of IT budgets in 2024, according to Wedbush. “This demonstrates a remarkable acceleration in AI spending after it comprised less than 1% of IT budgets in 2023,” added Seeking Alpha. All of which could have a powerful impact on AI-related stocks, such as VERSES AI Inc. (CBOE: VERS) (OTCQB: VRSSF), Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA), Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT), C3 AI (NYSE:AI) and Amazon.com (NASDAQ: AMZN).
In addition, “Gartner forecasts global spending on AI software will surge to $297B by 2027 as software vendors continue to integrated AI tools into products. The research firm expects more than 70% of independent software vendors will embed GenAI into their enterprise applications by 2026. That figure was less than 1% in 2023,” added Seeking Alpha.

VERSES AI Inc., a cognitive computing company developing next-generation intelligent software systems, today announced that third party logistics company NRI USA, LLC will be upgrading to the GENIUS Beta program.
“NRI was an early adopter of our offerings and saw the vision of what our intelligent software can provide. Since we entered into a commercial agreement with them, our business model has evolved from an industry specific bespoke offering, to that of our current flagship platform offering, GENIUS. So naturally it makes sense to transition our relationship onto the GENIUS platform,” said Gabriel René, CEO of VERSES.
“It was great utilizing the early capabilities of Wayfinder but we need more than just routing capabilities. The 3PL and supply chain industry is more complex than ever and at times very unpredictable. The ability to apply our vast amounts of data to GENIUS’ reasoning capabilities is extremely exciting for our business. This will be a foundational element for when the more advanced Genius capabilities are released in the future,” said Pete McKenna, CEO of NRI.
Due to the change of platform and the structure of the GENIUS offering, the existing SaaS contract dated August 25, 2021 is being voided by both parties and no further obligations are required on behalf of either party in respect of the SaaS contract. The two companies intend to enter into a new contract for GENIUS on terms being negotiated by the parties.
