Data shows: only about 10% of Americans use AI weekly; 55% have never used it; 47% say they “actively avoid” using it; and only 5% have a paid subscription. Despite surging annualized revenues for companies like Anthropic, discussions on topics like “token-maxxxing” remain confined to a tiny bubble.
