As Ai.com Sells For Record $70 Million, Attention Now Turns To ArtificialIntelligence.com
Washingtoner/10317754

ATLANTA - Washingtoner -- Following the historic $70 million sale of AI.com, the largest domain name sale ever publicly reported, industry focus is now on ArtificialIntelligence.com — the category-defining .com in the artificial intelligence space.

Unlike abbreviations or alternative domain extensions, ArtificialIntelligence.com is the definitive, globally recognized name in the Artificial Intelligence space. Once acquired, it will not return to market. The AI.com sale highlighted the immense value of Artificial Intelligence-related domains, with ArtificialIntelligence.com offering even more clarity and completeness by spelling out the full phrase Artificial Intelligence.

The urgency surrounding category-defining AI digital assets has never been greater. In February 2026, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman announced that Peter Steinberger — creator of OpenClaw, the viral open-source AI agent that amassed nearly 200,000 GitHub stars in record time — was joining OpenAI to lead its next generation of personal agents. The move came amid what appeared to be a fierce bidding war between OpenAI and Meta, with speculation that acquisition offers reached up to a billion dollars, though no financial terms were officially disclosed. The episode underscores just how aggressively the world's most powerful technology companies are competing to own the artificial intelligence space — and how rapidly the digital assets at the center of that race are appreciating in value.

AJ Martin of UpgradeYourDomain.com said, "The $70 million sale of AI.com reset the market's understanding of what category-defining digital assets are worth. ArtificialIntelligence.com is the full name behind that abbreviation — and it is the last one of its kind available."

A Strategic Opportunity Across All Sectors

ArtificialIntelligence.com presents a unique opportunity for:

• Artificial Intelligence and technology companies seeking market leadership
• Venture capital firms looking for strategic digital assets
• Governments aiming to position themselves as global AI leaders
• Research foundations in need of credibility and discoverability
• Media companies wanting the most powerful editorial address
• Philanthropic organizations focused on responsible AI development

The .com extension remains the gold standard for digital identity — a fact reinforced by the AI.com transaction, which demonstrated that when serious players compete for category dominance, .com is still where they go. ArtificialIntelligence.com represents a once-in-a-generation asset. Once it sells, it will likely never return to market.
