Summary from the TLDR Founders newsletter

AI has crossed from hype into real consumer spending. More than 40 of the top 100 App Store apps now have AI features built in, and they grew sales four times faster than the rest of the top 100, inside a $1.4 trillion market. What's pulling the money is that an AI upgrade pays off the instant you buy it, a higher limit or a smarter coach, so the spending is landing on everyday apps like photos, health, and shopping, not just the chatbots.
