Personalized AI Set to Drive Massive Profit Surge for Apple and Meta, Says Gene Munster
Yahoo Finance ·
Personalized artificial intelligence could soon emerge as a monumental profit engine for Apple Inc. and Meta Platforms Inc., according to a recent note from Deepwater Asset Management's Gene Munster. Currently, only 75 million to 100 million individuals pay for AI subscriptions across platforms like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Grok, representing a minor fraction of the roughly 5.5 billion daily global internet users. Munster emphasizes that even modest market adoption of paid AI tiers could yield staggering financial results, projecting potential operating income increases ranging from 8% to 90%. In Friday trading, Apple shares closed nearly 2% higher, whereas Meta shares declined by over 3%. Munster remains highly optimistic about the untapped potential within both consumer and enterprise segments.

Gene Munster of Deepwater Asset Management projected that customized AI will become the next-generation core revenue driver for Apple and Meta. Out of 5.5 billion daily internet users worldwide, only 75 million to 100 million currently use paid AI subscriptions, leaving massive room for growth. Analysis shows that even a small fraction of users converting to paid plans could increase Apple and Meta's operating income by 8% to up to 90%. Investors should focus on the potential for earnings improvement driven by the advancement of AI agents and the diversification of pricing plans.
상승 영향

DYAX 전담 분석
The spread of customized AI subscription services acts as a key driver that prompts a re-evaluation of the valuations of major big tech companies like Apple and Meta. In the case of Apple, a conservative scenario could generate an additional $4 billion in annual operating income, while Meta can also diversify its revenue through subscriptions and transaction fees beyond advertising.
In the bull scenario, operating income increases explosively as the proportion of power users grows due to advanced AI features, whereas in the bear scenario, sluggish conversion rates to paid plans may lead to a failure to recover excessive AI infrastructure investment costs. Key monitoring indicators moving forward are the trends in global paid AI subscribers and whether token consumption limits are reached.
