Palantir Technologies Inc. has seen a significant rise in its stock valuation, driven by increased interest from individual investors and the company's focus on artificial intelligence (AI). The stock has surged 83% this year and is currently trading at 22 times next year's expected revenue, making it one of the most expensive cloud software stocks.

The company's growth in both commercial and government markets is attributed to strong demand for its advanced AI systems. Palantir has also received praise on CNBC for its execution in software and AI.
