Anguilla, a small Caribbean island, got lucky with its internet name. The island's web address ends with .ai. This is now very popular because of artificial intelligence (AI).
Many companies want to use .ai in their website names. They pay Anguilla for this. One person even paid $700,000 for a special .ai name!
This is good for Anguilla. The island usually makes money from tourism. But hurricanes can hurt tourism. Now, selling .ai names helps Anguilla make more money in different ways.
