    Monkey paw curls and the domain gets purchased by (another) sexy chat bot provider.

        Me too. If I had something of merit to say, I’d consider grabbing it. But it is so surprising that I keep checking after posting this, expecting somebody will grab it.

          Or some edgy marketing move, just having it redirect to an artists’ makerspace collective or something. $185 is nothing compared to the notoriety a few viral news articles would bring in.

      I don’t know what you mean. There is no squatting here. That is a genuine listing from marcaria.com, one of the few registrars authorized to sell Anguilla domains.

        my bad; usually i saw the price and assumed because it was so high it was one of those companies. i didn’t know what the going rate was for .ai tlds. sorry, didn’t mean to imply anything to you or accuse you of anything.
