Registrations for .AI domain names have grown by nearly 40,000 in the last two months, demonstrating the strong demand for this top-level domain (ccTLD) in the artificial intelligence industry. According to Anguilla's registry, the total number of .AI domain name registrations reached 572,575 as of November 27, 2023, up 39,507 from 533,068 on October 1st. This compares to just 353,928 at the beginning of 2023.

This growth reflects the continued expansion of the AI industry and the popularity of .AI domain names among relevant brands, companies and individuals. Unlike many of the top-level domains that are growing rapidly due to low-pricing strategies, .AI domains are more consistently priced, costing $70 per year to register and requiring a minimum of two years of registration. This moderate pricing strategy has helped .AI domains maintain a high quality of usage and avoid becoming a breeding ground for spammy websites.

A recent change in the management of .AI has also seen Identity Digital take over the registry management function of the top-level domain, replacing Vince Cate, the Anguilla government's long-time technical contact for the domain, a change that may signal further technical and service optimization for .AI domains in the future.

As Anguilla's ccTLD, .AI's original geographic attributes have now taken on a whole new industry significance. The rise of Artificial Intelligence has morphed it from a regional icon to a global symbol of tech innovation. Whether it's a startup, a tech team, or an individual developer, registering a .AI domain name has become an important way to showcase their identity in the AI space.

This phenomenon is not only a trend in the field of domain name registration, but also reflects the global AI industry's fervor. It is foreseeable that the demand for .AI domain names will continue to climb with the further development of AI technology.
