TODAY IN WORLD OF AI

👁️‍🗨️Snapchat bets big on AR self-expression with $8.99 lens premium tier

Snapchat just dropped its newest revenue experiment: a $8.99/month Lens Premium subscription offering access to exclusive AR filters, AI-generated fashion lenses, and early experimental features.

The pitch? Hyper-personalized, always-on digital identity, tailor-made for Gen Z’s obsession with self-expression.

From virtual makeup to full-body fashion transformations, these AR lenses go far beyond dog ears and flower crowns. It’s Snapchat’s play to monetize what was once free by turning camera effects into a subscription-worthy experience. The model echoes what we’ve seen with Spotify skins, Fortnite outfits, and Discord Nitro perks: small digital upgrades that quietly build big user loyalty.

But here’s the catch: Will users pay nearly $9/month for vanity features in a space that’s long thrived on “free fun”? Or will this signal a broader shift toward paid personalization as the next wave of consumer monetization?

📱 If Lens Premium succeeds, we might be entering a new frontier where AR is no longer just playful, it’s profitable. And Snapchat, often underestimated in the social wars, could end up leading the way in immersive, identity-first monetization.

AI SPECIAL EDITION

🎙️Outset raises $17M to replace human interviewers with AI Agents: empathy at scale?

Outset just secured $17 million in funding to transform how enterprises conduct research by swapping out human interviewers for AI agents. Their promise? Faster, deeper, and more scalable conversations, minus the fatigue, scheduling delays, or unconscious bias that can derail traditional interviews.

These AI agents don’t just collect data, they simulate natural dialogue, parse nuance, and adapt in real-time. Imagine replacing lengthy user research cycles with always-on digital reps capable of handling hundreds of qualitative interviews simultaneously.

For enterprises drowning in data but starving for insight, this could be a game-changer. But it also raises a crucial question: Can AI replicate the subtle empathy and contextual reading a human brings to deep conversations?

As companies race to optimize every process, Outset is betting that the future of research lies not in people but in prompts. It’s a bold move in a space long reliant on human connection. And with enterprise adoption climbing fast, we might soon see AI-powered conversations shaping everything from product strategy to customer success.
