“Turns out, 'super intelligence' is still just 'intelligence' when it comes to your wallet.”

The story behind the toon

What happened: TYPE: Foundation Model | TECH: Super Intelligence (Rebranding) | MECHANISM: Despite high-level AI safety pledges and rebranding efforts to position AI as 'super intelligence,' consumers are not finding sufficient unique value in AI applications to warrant payment, creating a significant economic disparity between consumer and enterprise adoption. | IMPACT: Only 2% of consumers are paying for AI apps, indicating a major market failure for direct-to-consumer AI products, contrasting sharply with robust enterprise investment.

This Neural Toon is based on the story “Call it AI, call it Super Intelligence, only 2% of consumers are buying it”.
