(NASDAQ: NVDA)</a> are accumulating fortunes from AI, the island of Anguilla is also <a href="https://apnews.com/article/anguilla-artificial-intelligence-ai-internet-29d4ca2bb740d0425ffb8355811a6976" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">minting serious cash</a> from this industry. This started at about the time ChatGPT went public and set off a frenzy among companies wishing to get websites ending in .ai.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p>Cue in Anguilla. This British territory in the Caribbean didn’t know it had struck future gold when, by a stroke of luck, it was allocated the .ai internet address back in 1995. Each country has a unique internet address for sites located within its jurisdiction, and Anguilla found itself with the .ai address for its internet traffic. It should be noted that it isn’t compulsory for a website to contain the internet initials of the country where it is domiciled, but many still include that address as part of the website address.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p>So, Anguilla got the right address, but the good tidings came decades later. At the moment, many companies are rushing to include .ai in their website addresses, and given that Anguilla is the legal holder of those initials, it is reaping from its good fortune. For example, Google is currently using google.ai as a way to showcase the AI services it offers, just as x.ai is the address for the chatbot Grok offered by Tesla owner Elon Musk.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p>In the same vein, Perplexity, a startup bent on taking as big a cut of search traffic from Google as it can, also owns an .ai address. Many companies also have such addresses, and many more are in the process of acquiring them in order to tell site visitors right off the bat that they are in the business of providing services leveraging artificial intelligence.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p>Anguilla is earning money fist over fist as the modern “gold rush” plays out. The country is paid for each domain that is registered with the .ai initial at its end. This revenue quadruped to <a href="https://gov.ai/document/2024-09-09-022435_1388763330.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">$32m in 2023</a>. On the surface, this figure may not be ground-shaking, but it now accounts for a significant 20% of the government’s revenue. Prior to the boom in AI, the fraction hovered at approximately 5%. The country also gets paid each time one of these domains is renewed.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p>Demand for sites with this ending has skyrocketed to the extent that the government of Anguilla has contracted Identity Digital, an American-based firm also hired by Australia, to manage this domain registration and renewal process. The domains are so much in demand that some have been <a href="https://auction.whois.ai/auctions/index/closed/sort:price/direction:desc" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">sold at multiples of $10,000!</a></p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p>This island, which is famous for its premium tourist attractions (clear waters, coral reefs and white sand beaches teeming with palm trees) favored by the ultra-wealthy as a holiday destination, is using this uptick in revenue to expand the country’s airport, provide free healthcare services to the elderly, and also complete a tech training institution on the island.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p>Amidst the frenzy of the AI boom, much of the spotlight remains on tech giants and trailblazing innovators. Yet, underpinning this high-tech revolution are essential “workhorse metals”—silver, gold, and copper—that make the infrastructure for AI possible, from advanced graphics processors to expansive data centers. Companies like <a href="https://ainewswire.com/ai-companies/mcewen-mining-inc" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">McEwen Mining Inc. (NYSE: MUX) (TSX: MUX)</a> that focus on mining these critical metals are positioned to benefit from AI’s burgeoning demand.
