"But the mysterious teaser worked; web searches for "What is AI.com" exploded. According to EDO, a company that helps businesses measure the impact of advertisements, AI.com was the top-performing ad of the night, with 9.1 times as much engagement as the average Super Bowl ad. But when interested people rushed to the website, they found an error message waiting for them. The company's website had immediately crashed."
"On its now-functioning website, the company describes itself as a platform offering access to a "private, personal AI agent that doesn't just answer questions, but actually operates on the user's behalf - organizing work, sending messages, executing actions across apps, building projects, and more." The company wrote that the agent will soon be able to help users "trade stocks, automate workflows, organize and execute daily tasks with their calendar, or even update their online dating profile.""
A 30-second Super Bowl commercial for AI.com aired a mysterious teaser urging viewers to claim handles like Mark, Sam, and Elon while revealing no product details. Web searches for "What is AI.com" surged and engagement reached 9.1 times the average Super Bowl ad, but the company's website crashed under heavy traffic. Kris Marszalek, previously a cofounder of Crypto.com, paid $70 million for the AI.com domain and is CEO of both companies. AI.com markets a private, personal AI agent that acts on users' behalf across apps, promising features such as trading stocks, automating workflows, and managing calendars. The technology powering the service is not proprietary.
