AI Adoption Outpaces All Previous Tech Revolutions

Mary Meeker, known as the "Queen of the Internet," released a report highlighting the unprecedented pace of artificial intelligence adoption. The study shows AI is being invested in, developed, and used faster than any previous technological change. ChatGPT reached 100 million users in under two months, far quicker than Facebook's 4.5 years. Meeker attributes this rapid growth to aggressive development by tech companies, decreased costs, and widespread buy-in from businesses. The report also notes increased mentions of AI in corporate earnings reports and a 167% year-over-year increase in new AI models since 2020.
