9/21/2023 03:38:00 PM 2023 is widely being touted as the year of AI, and there are several apps out there that have managed to incorporate AI functionality to one extent or another. From photo and video editing apps that enable users to create high quality productions on a tight budget to chatbots that seem almost entirely human, there is no shortage of AI based apps that are seeing an explosion in their popularity. With all of that having been said and now out of the way, it is important to note that Picsart is one of the most popular apps of all, at least as far as AI functionality is concerned. Not only did this app receive the highest number of downloads in the first half of 2023, but it also attained the highest number of monthly active users. Furthermore, Picsart managed to reach second place in terms of revenue. In spite of the fact that this is the case, Facetune was able to surpass Picsart’s revenue to reach the top spot. Both of these apps offer video and photo editing to users, thereby confirming that such apps are seeing more popularity than might have been the case otherwise. Another AI based photo enhancer that has been picking up a lot of steam is Remini. It received the second highest number of downloads of any app that offers some degree of AI functionality, with the third highest amount of revenue after Facetune and Picsart along with the fourth highest number of monthly active users. Interestingly, Microsoft Edge has also been seeing a tremendous level of success with all things having been considered and taken into account. The integration of OpenAI’s GPT Large Language Model into the Bing search engine has allowed Microsoft Edge to enter the AI arena, making it one of the few major tech corporations to throw their hat into the ring. Based on the data collected from various app libraries and platforms, Microsoft Edge managed the impressive feat of attaining the third highest number of monthly active users. Only Picsart and a photo and video editor by the name of B612 were able to surpass Microsoft Edge in terms of monthly active users. As for total downloads, Microsoft Edge once again reached third place. Picsart and Remini were able to surpass it, but no other app managed to beat Microsoft which makes the tech juggernaut a true contender in the AI arena. Attaining some degree of prominence in the field of AI is essential because of the fact that this is the sort of thing that could potentially end up keeping companies relevant in the near future. Chat With Ask AI is yet another example of AI, although it offers an AI chatbot instead of photo and video editing features. This app reached ninth place in monthly active users, fifth place in total downloads and also got the tenth highest amount of revenue. It will be interesting to see which of these apps are able to maintain their position. Whichever app manages to stand the test of time will be poised to profit greatly from the industry, along with paving the way for future apps that will incorporate AI in various ways.
