With shares up more than 333% over the last 12 months, Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ: PLTR) has been a massive beneficiary of generative artificial intelligence (AI), which many believe could revolutionize how people use and interact with big data.

Palantir would need to grow into a $6.7 trillion market cap to turn a $25,000 investment into $1 million. This would be its valuation if it grew to 40 times its size today.
