The year 2026 will be the watershed moment for the true explosion of AI applications.



This is not about simple applications that just connect to a large model API, but rather AI products that are designed from the underlying architecture for users, systematic, capable of solving real problems and creating real value.

An intuitive way to measure this: see if users are willing to pay extra to subscribe to your product on top of already paying $20 for a 2-3 month AI membership subscription. That’s true core demand.

Conversely, if users only subscribe to a single AI membership and have no other options, the significance of the payment behavior is limited. The real explosion will definitely be an era where users actively pay for differentiated value.
