"It would be a truly sad future if AI delegated all creative work to robots." Designer Pablo Stanley speaks frankly, but adds, "I don't think that will happen. It will actually be a more collaborative utopia." Pablo is the co-founder and designer of Lumi, an AI-powered image collection platform. Recently acquired by Udemy, Lumi is a collection of images created by thousands of AI creators who were tired of boring, repetitive stock images. He is also the co-founder of several AI-powered creative tools, including Blush and Mushu. But his journey began with a pure childhood fascination with robots. A child growing up in the age of robots "I grew up in a time when robots were the coolest thing ever. Movies, comics, and pop culture were filled with all kinds of versions of robots." Pablo takes up his pen and spends 90 seconds drawing on his childhood inspirations: the Jason Family robot, RoboCop, Blade Runner... The robots of that era weren't simply machines. They had personalities, and they asked themselves, "Am I alive?"—and humans pondered that question along with them. "A dystopian world where robots are not accepted... We're there now." The sketches he drew are reminiscent of the robots people imagined in the 1960s: square bodies, metallic textures, and rugged machines. His proposal is to return to the robots we imagined. "People who make decisions before even trying AI" Many creative professionals are still hesitant about AI. Pablo attributes this to fear of the unknown and the low quality of early AI results. "Just a year ago, we would have laughed at images of six-fingered figures or strange limbs. Such flaws made it easy to dismiss AI. But that's no longer the case." His advice to creators is clear: start with low-risk projects. "I usually tell people to start with something stupid—a low-risk, silly project, just a silly idea. Then you can test what you can actually do and start seeing how it can be applied to real-world work." Lessons Learned from the Browser Wars Everything moves quickly. New tools emerge, existing ones improve... How can you keep up with the times in your daily work? Pablo recalls the browser wars of the past. When one browser developed a feature, others copied and implemented it. Users benefited from this competition. "AI tools are now looking at each other. They're competing, and when a competitor comes up with a useful feature, they try to implement something similar. Now, they all have very similar capabilities." His conclusion: Pick one and stick with it. You'll still get good results, and you won't miss out on much.

The AI market landscape has changed in just six months. As of the end of 2023, OpenAI held a monopoly, holding half (50%) of the enterprise AI market. But as of 2025, something surprising has happened. Anthropic's Claude has taken the top spot with a 32% share, while OpenAI's share has nearly halved to 25%. What on earth happened? The story of Claude's capture of developers' hearts Code generation becomes AI's first killer app. "Currently, 100% of our production workloads run on premium models like Claude. We initially started with POCs using Llama and DeepSeek, but over time, they couldn't keep up with Claude's performance." This quote from a corporate developer illustrates the current situation well: Claude holds a 42% market share, particularly in code generation, more than double OpenAI's 21%. With the release of Claude Sonnet 3.5 in June 2024, the AI development ecosystem has completely changed. What started as a single market, GitHub Copilot, has grown into a massive $1.9 billion ecosystem, and a plethora of new categories have emerged, from AI IDEs like Cursor and Windsurf to app builders like Lovable and Bolt, and even enterprise coding agents like Claude Code. Pioneer of the agent era 2025 is being called the "Year of the Agent." Unlike existing AIs that simply provided answers, Claude has evolved into a true agent capable of thinking step-by-step, reasoning through problems, and leveraging external tools. By integrating various resources, including search, calculators, and coding environments through the Model Context Protocol (MCP), Claude has become a much more useful tool for real-world tasks.

How would Amazon respond if its generative AI lied? AI is a liar? 😱 While the generative AI craze is raging, there's one problem that every business is grappling with: AI lies too often . Creating information that doesn't exist 📝 Missing important information 🕳️ I have tons of ideas, but it's hard to know what's really effective 🤷‍♀️ So, most companies rely on human review or use separate testing tools. However, these methods are expensive and slow, making it difficult to verify all AI-generated content. Amazon's Innovative Solution: Catalog AI ✨ Amazon approached this problem in a completely different way: They created a system called "Catalog AI" that verifies AI with AI ! 📊 Amazing achievements Generate and test tens of millions of hypotheses annually (compared to just a few thousand in traditional systems) 8% of suggestions contribute to actual sales increase 80% of AI results pass quality verification (initially 20%) Amazon's 4-Step Quality Management System 🎯 1️⃣ Audit: Face the Reality We set a benchmark by comparing the AI-generated product pages with information we already know . This is the same principle as quality control in manufacturing. 2️⃣ Guardrails: Triple safety device Simple rules : Basic rules like "Weight must be followed by units (kg, lb)" Statistical Profile : Create guardrails with common table information, warning when out of range. AI checks AI : A system where the first AI creates content, and then the second AI reviews it. 💡 Tip : AIs trained with different data can check each other to catch more errors! 3️⃣ Effectiveness Testing: The Evolution of A/B Testing Automatically run all AI suggestions through A/B testing.

Over the past 21 years, Google.org has invested $6 billion globally, supporting 3,600 nonprofit organizations and 1,700 universities, expanding its reach to 160 countries. The US AI Opportunity Fund has invested $90 billion to empower one million people through AI education, providing comprehensive support ranging from job training to digital safety education. From AI flood prediction to fire detection satellites, Google has demonstrated concrete results in solving real-world social problems through science and technology, saving lives. New inequalities brought about by the technology gap With the advent of the AI era, the world stands at a new crossroads. According to the World Economic Forum, the top three skills most in demand by the American workforce by 2030 will be AI/big data, networking/cybersecurity, and technological literacy. But what's the reality? Only half of the world's workers have access to adequate AI training opportunities. Farmers in developing countries lose up to 50% of their crop yields due to lack of access to crop pest information, and hundreds of thousands of people die each year due to inadequate natural disaster prediction systems. Technology has advanced, but its benefits are not reaching those who really need them.

3-line summary Wealthier countries and regions use AI more , with a strong correlation found: a 1% increase in GDP leads to a 0.7% increase in AI usage. Businesses are 77% more likely to favor automation than individuals, suggesting a major labor market shift is imminent. Automation rates surge from 27% to 39% in just nine months , with people handing over more responsibilities to AI. Problem Statement: The Emergence of New Technological Inequalities Anthropic's latest economic index report reveals a shocking reality: AI adoption is starkly divided by economic power and geography, potentially replicating the economic disparities previously caused by general-purpose technologies like electricity and the internal combustion engine. Looking at the current situation: Developed countries such as Israel, Singapore, and Australia overwhelmingly lead in AI usage per capita. Within the US, Washington, D.C., Utah, and California recorded the highest usage rates. Income level is a key factor in determining AI usage. Even more serious is the difference in usage patterns . High-income countries prefer collaborative approaches with AI, while low-income countries rely on simple automation. This suggests a gap in AI utilization capabilities itself. The Solution: Building an Inclusive AI Ecosystem 1. Accessibility Expansion Policy Mandatory AI Education Programs : Incorporating AI Literacy into All Curricula Infrastructure Investment : Expanding Internet connectivity and computing resources in low-income areas. Breaking Down Language Barriers : Developing AI Models That Consider Diverse Languages and Cultural Contexts 2. Bridging the gap between businesses and individuals Data showing that businesses are 77% more likely to embrace automation than individuals suggests a dramatic shift in the labor market. To address this: Expanding Retraining Programs : Developing New Job Skills Collaborating with AI Strengthening the Social Safety Net: A Support System for Job Displacement Due to Automation Guidelines for Ethical AI Adoption : Preventing Indiscriminate Automation in Businesses

Companies are seeing tangible results from their AI investments. A recent study by Google Cloud found that 88% of leading companies adopting AI agents are achieving a positive ROI from generative AI , significantly exceeding the overall enterprise average of 74%. Now that the era of AI agents has truly arrived, how can you maximize your investment? 7 Strategies for Maximizing AI Agent ROI 1. Secure C-level sponsors Organizations with comprehensive executive support are achieving 78% ROI from AI. The first condition for successful AI adoption is a clear vision and support from top management. Beyond simply securing approval for the technology, it's crucial to secure comprehensive understanding and support of how AI aligns with business goals. Eric Lambert, Vice President of Legal at Trimble, emphasized, "Leaders must first determine what ROI means. It goes beyond simple financial returns." The performance of AI investments should be measured across multiple dimensions, including improved efficiency and achievement of business objectives. 2. Establishing a data governance and security system 37% of companies cited data privacy and security as their top consideration when choosing an LLM provider . Building trustworthy AI systems requires robust data governance and an enterprise security framework. Natalie Bowman, Director of Data Management at Alaska Airlines, noted, "The biggest security concern for LLMs is the risk of malicious actors accessing the data, causing hallucinations, or altering the data." We must establish systematic security policies to ensure data integrity and prevent vicious cycles, and maintain a system that always allows for human intervention. 3. Start with the areas where you can make the biggest impact. The effects of AI were found to be greatest in the following order: productivity (70%), customer experience (63%), and business growth (56%). Not all AI projects deliver equal value. Focus on building AI agents that can automate repetitive tasks to achieve a clear ROI. Specifically, in the area of individual productivity, 39% of companies have already achieved ROI, and of those reporting productivity gains, 39% said employee productivity has at least doubled. 4. Granting AI agents appropriate tool access. For AI agents to perform practical tasks, they need access to internal enterprise systems like CRM or Drive . Building AI agents that go beyond simple chatbots and perform real-world tasks requires providing secure and controlled access to the necessary systems and data. "AI agents can be applied to a wide range of use cases, and every business has workflows where agentic AI can deliver meaningful value," said Fiona Tan, CTO of Wayfair. 5. Building a Scalable AI Rulebook As AI use increases, so do the risks, so it's important to establish clear, company-wide guidelines early . "AI technology is evolving rapidly. Even a year ago, very few people were talking about AI agents and agentic AI at the enterprise level," said Cristina Nitulescu, director of digital transformation at Bayer Consumer Health, emphasizing the importance of redesigning processes for the future. We need to establish clear standards and procedures for data security, intellectual property protection, and compliance now.

Key Summary • Big Tech Showdown : Google Gemini Challenges ChatGPT's Stronghold, Chasing Second Place on the Web and Half the Mobile Market • Emergence of Chinese AI Legion : 3 of the top 20 web apps and 22 of the top 50 mobile apps are Chinese and are dominating the global market. • Accelerating the Coding Revolution : Lovable Rises to 22nd Place, Entering the Era of AI-Powered App Creation • Ecosystem overhaul : New entrants reduced to 11, clearing the line between winners and losers. • All-Star Club : 14 companies make the top list for the fifth consecutive time, emerging as true contenders in the AI market. ChatGPT ChatGPT still holds the top spot across both web and mobile, maintaining its dominant position. However, Google Gemini is threatening to overtake ChatGPT, with a 12% share of web traffic and half the number of monthly active users (MAU) on mobile. In the Chinese market in particular, access restrictions are forcing ChatGPT to cede market share to local competitors. Google Gemini Google's ambitious Gemini achieved the most notable performance in this survey. It secured a solid second-place position, second only to ChatGPT, at second place on the web and second on mobile. Notably, it secured a 90% user base on Android devices, demonstrating the power of the Google ecosystem. In addition to Gemini, Google also placed four other products in the top 50 simultaneously: AI Studio (10th), NotebookLM (13th), and Google Labs (39th), demonstrating its strong presence in the AI market. China's AI Empire The entry of Chinese companies into the global AI market is notable. Among the top 20 web developers, three companies—Quark (9th), Doubao (12th), and Kimi (17th)—all operate Chinese websites, with over 75% of their traffic coming from China. Conversely, while 22 of the 50 mobile apps were developed in China, only three are actually primarily used in China, demonstrating a clear "develop in China, export globally" strategy. In particular, Chinese companies' advantage over Western counterparts in video generation is attributed to their larger research team and relatively lax intellectual property regulations. Vibe Coding The "Vibe Coding" trend, where AI directly creates apps, is experiencing explosive growth. Lovable has soared to 22nd place on the Brinklist, and Replit has also entered the main list. According to credit card panel data, the US user cohort of a major Vibe Coding platform has demonstrated over 100% revenue retention for several months after signing up, demonstrating a sustainable business model. This means that even if users churn, overall revenue grows month-over-month due to increased usage by remaining users. Grok Grok, the AI assistant from X (formerly Twitter), has seen remarkable growth, especially on mobile. From a "cold start" in late 2024, it now boasts over 20 million monthly active users. In July, the launch of the Grok 4 model (July 9) and the introduction of AI companion avatars (July 14) led to a nearly 40% user increase. The animated avatar "Ani," which includes NSFW options, proved particularly popular upon its launch. DeepSeek DeepSeek, once a leading player in the Chinese AI craze, is experiencing a steep decline. Its web usage has fallen by more than 40% since its peak in February 2025, and its mobile usage has also declined by 22%. This suggests that, despite its initial buzz, it is struggling to maintain sustained user retention. All-Star Club The 14 "all-star" companies that have made the Web Top 50 for five consecutive years have established themselves as true winners in the AI consumer market. They cover a wide range of areas, including general assistants (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Poe), companions (Character AI), image generation (Midjourney, Leonardo), video and image editing (Veed, Cutout), voice generation (Eleven Labs), productivity tools (Photoroom, Gamma, Quillbot), and model hosting (Civitai, HuggingFace). Interestingly, only five of the 14 companies have their own foundation models, suggesting that the API-based model is more effective. They hail from five countries: the US, the UK, Australia, China, and France, and, with the exception of Midjourney, all have received venture funding.

Key Summary • Google's market dominance : Google maintains first place with 163.15 billion visits (87.6%) out of 186.3 billion visits to all search engines. • ChatGPT dominates the chatbot market : Of the 5.52 billion visits to AI chatbots, ChatGPT accounted for 4.77 billion visits (86.5%). • 34x Traffic Gap : Search engines will have 34x more visitors than AI chatbots (as of March 2025) • Recession vs. Growth : Search engines decreased by 0.51% year-over-year, while AI chatbots increased by 2.98%. • Monthly traffic change : ChatGPT increased by 75%, from 400 million to 700 million monthly averages. Search engine market: Google holds 87.6% share Analysis of data from April 2024 to March 2025 revealed that the total number of visits to search engines worldwide reached 186.3 billion. Google accounted for 87.6% of the total with 163.15 billion visits, followed by Microsoft Bing with 6.01 billion visits (3.2%), and Yahoo with 3.7 billion visits (2.0%). Russia's Yandex recorded 4.13 billion searches, while China's Baidu recorded 2.41 billion. However, these two platforms only accounted for 2.2% and 1.3% of Google's market share, respectively. Notably, the 0.51% year-on-year decrease in overall search engine traffic is a sign that users are reducing their use of search engines. Monthly data shows that search engine traffic remains stagnant at between 15 and 16 billion requests per month, with a clear downward trend since the second half of 2024. AI Chatbot Market: ChatGPT Dominates 86.5% The AI chatbot market recorded a total of 5.52 billion visits, with OpenAI's ChatGPT dominating the market with 4.77 billion visits (86.5%). Microsoft Copilot came in second with 920 million visits (16.7%), and Google Gemini third with 170 million visits (3.1%). Perplexity and Claude ranked fourth and fifth, respectively, with 130 million and 120 million visits. ChatGPT's monthly visitors increased by 125%, from 310 million in April 2024 to 700 million in March 2025, with a particularly sharp increase from January 2025. The overall AI chatbot market grew by 2.98% year-over-year, contrasting with the negative growth of search engines. Monthly traffic is expected to nearly double, from 3.4 billion requests in the second half of 2024 to 6.7 billion requests in early 2025 . Traffic Comparison: 34x Difference, But the Gap Is Closing As of March 2025, total search engine traffic (16.37 billion requests) was 34 times that of AI chatbots (700 million requests). However, this gap is steadily narrowing. In April 2024, search engines generated 15.5 billion requests, while AI chatbots generated 310 million requests, a 50-fold difference. However, within a year, this gap narrowed to 34 times. Specifically, while search engines stagnated at an average of 15.5 billion monthly requests, AI chatbots saw a 133% increase, from 300 million to 700 million. Notably, the 10-15% monthly increase in AI chatbot traffic through 2025 is evidence that users are beginning to prefer conversational, question-and-answer formats over simple keyword searches. By major platform, Google searches remained stagnant at 13.6 billion monthly searches, while ChatGPT grew from 300 million to 700 million monthly searches. Bing searches remained steady at 500 million monthly searches, but Copilot grew 50%, from 60 million to 90 million monthly searches. Future Outlook: The gap is expected to narrow tenfold within two years. If current growth rates continue, the traffic gap between search engines and AI chatbots is expected to narrow to less than tenfold by 2027. If ChatGPT achieves 2 billion monthly traffic and all AI chatbots achieve 2.5 billion monthly traffic, they could grow to 15% of search engine traffic.

Key Takeaways: The Crossroads of Speed vs. Safety The Trump administration's AI action plan can be summarized in one sentence: "Let's get ahead of China first, and think about regulation later." 3 strategies at a glance • Accelerating innovation : deregulation, support for open-source AI, and expanded government adoption of AI. • Infrastructure construction : Large-scale construction of data centers and semiconductor factories, expansion of power grids. • International leadership : Exporting US AI to allies, blocking Chinese technology The real question: Is this really realistic? 1. The illusion of “neutral AI” The most ridiculous part of the document is the part where it promises to eliminate "ideological bias" in AI while simultaneously ensuring it reflects "American values." This is a contradiction. All AI cannot help but reflect the values of its creator. The very act of selecting data is already the beginning of bias. The same goes for calling DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) “social engineering” and excluding it. If we don’t take diversity into account, we are more likely to end up with more biased AI. 2. Environment comes second, power comes first Plans to significantly ease environmental regulations to build AI infrastructure are also short-term. A single data center consumes as much electricity as hundreds of thousands of households a year. An AI service like ChatGPT consumes 10 times more electricity than Google Search. In this situation, a “let’s build it first and see” approach without considering the environment is dangerous. Moreover, with natural disasters increasing due to climate change, what will happen if that infrastructure is damaged by typhoons or wildfires? 3. Possibility of backlash from allies Another problem is that the United States is pressuring its allies to choose between using our technology or using Chinese technology. Europe has already demonstrated its digital sovereignty with GDPR and recently passed the AI Act. Japan has also announced its own AI policy. In this situation, saying, “Use only American technology” will only increase the backlash. Are there any realistic alternatives? Gradual deregulation is the answer Rather than eliminating regulations altogether, it is better to selectively relax them only where necessary . For example, in fields directly related to life, such as medical AI or autonomous driving, safety verification will be strengthened, while in the gaming and entertainment fields, regulations will be relaxed. Building an international cooperation framework

Google AI Studio, which previously raised concerns about being paid, has officially announced that it will continue to be provided for free, and this is receiving a great response from users. Logan Kilpatrick, head of Google AI Studio, made it clear on Reddit that "the free tier of Google AI Studio isn't going away anytime soon." Key announcements: “Moving AI Studio to API key-based doesn’t mean we’re going away with free access,” he explained. “The API has a free tier that’s used by millions of developers, and that’s far more people than the UI experience.” In particular, the Gemini 2.5 Pro model, which is currently only available as a paid service, was also hinted at the possibility of being included in the free tier in the future. It was revealed that specific methods are being reviewed, saying, "We are exploring methods such as lifetime restrictions and various incentives." Kilpatrick also tried to assuage concerns from existing users, saying, “For most users, we don’t expect anything to change,” adding that the company is also actively looking into integrating AI Studio with Google’s AI Pro or Ultra plans. Hot response from users: The comments section was flooded with messages of gratitude and relief. “I appreciate this form of communication. It’s really great to see an actual product owner acknowledging user concerns on Reddit,” one user said. Another user expressed personal gratitude, saying, "AI Studio helped me pass my exams this semester. It's a tool that allowed me to work remotely when I can't go to campus due to a serious back problem." Requests from advanced users: Many users have asked for advanced features of AI Studio to be applied to the Gemini app. The majority of users said, “We want to use the fine-grained control features of AI Studio, such as temperature control, token count check, and system prompt setting, in the Gemini app.” “I use AI Studio for work, and the paid Gemini app has so many restrictions and censorship that it feels like it’s for kids,” said a medical/legal professional, asking for an option for advanced users. Welcome to the developer community: Developers particularly appreciated the large context window and unlimited usage. “I’m working on a 900K token AI company game and it wouldn’t have been possible without the large context of the Gemini 2.5 Pro,” one user said. Praise for transparent communication: There was also a lot of praise for Kilpatrick's direct and transparent communication style. "Thank you for such detailed and transparent updates," and "I hope this kind of direct and transparent communication continues in the future."

Google's AI Studio head Logan Kilpatrick's comments regarding the consideration of paid services are causing a stir in the online community. Course of events Recently, a user complained, “Why are pro users limited to 100 queries per day, but free AI Studio users can use it unlimited?” In response, Kilpatrick said, “We are considering switching AI Studio to a full API key-based system.” However, when this answer became known, there was a strong backlash from other users, and eventually the original complainant ended up deleting his post. Strong reaction from users What's particularly upsetting to users is that Kilpatrick publicly promised that "AI Studio will always be free" in November 2024. Here are the main objections: "Giving up millions of users' data is a foolish decision" "The control features in AI Studio are far superior to those in the Gemini app, so why get rid of them?" "90% of users will leave" "It's like giving up competitiveness against ChatGPT" Spread of anxiety over the end of free service Currently, anxiety about the end of free benefits is spreading rapidly in the AI Studio user community. Many users are requesting that "rather than fully paid, we should move in the direction of placing restrictions on the free tier." Google has yet to announce an official policy change, but due to strong backlash from users, attention is being paid to whether this will change in the future.

Perplexity is currently working internally on a new feature called “Scheduled Tasks” that is taking web browsing automation to a whole new level. The feature is not yet live in the user interface, but it has been spotted in the codebase, indicating that time-based routines are being prepared for release. Key features and functions This feature is similar in concept to ChatGPT’s scheduled tasks, allowing users to make recurring requests, such as daily news summaries or updates. However, Perplexity has a unique feature: while ChatGPT currently limits emails to simple links, many users expect Perplexity’s implementation to include actual content. This feature works across browsers and through the standard Perplexity web client, but is expected to be more effective in the Comet browser. Comet's ability to interact deeply with websites opens up new possibilities for automating tasks on platforms like LinkedIn or X. Practical Use Cases Professional automation : After you perform regular job searches on LinkedIn, it may be possible to automatically submit applications using your saved resume. This can be a completely automated process, especially for Easy Apply listings. Social Media Management : Routine social tasks like sending messages, liking posts, or making posts using services like Ghost can be performed without user input when appropriate prompts are set. Technological Advantages and Limitations Comet is built to integrate Perplexity’s AI engine into all interaction layers, and has already received early feedback on scheduled task execution, indicating strong user demand. While file uploads remain a limitation, many real-world scenarios, especially those involving cloud-based workflows, do not require local file interaction. These characteristics position Comet as a more capable browser-agent hybrid than tools like Manos or traditional operators, which are typically limited to a narrower scope or manual setup. For users looking to automate routines or content publishing flows, especially on platforms like Ghost, this development could dramatically streamline their workflow. For users already experimenting with prompt chaining and automation within Comet, Perplexity's Scheduled Tasks feature will be a notable addition, as it will be a very promising development.
