100xwithAI

For the past three decades, the internet has been centered around humans. We've built websites, launched businesses, and fostered communities — growing from a few million domains in the 90s to over 350 million today.

Now a remarkable shift is underway. We're not merely adopting AI; we're integrating a new digital species. AI domains, digital twins, and billions of IoT devices are coming online at machine speed, unlocking growth measured in 100-fold leaps. Every AI will need a verifiable domain — a digital birth certificate — and the 2026 ICANN cycle is the pivotal moment to prepare.

Why domains for machines?

Unlike humans, AI grows at machine speed and will require unique, verifiable identities to interact, transact, and be governed. Domains provide structure, trust, and interoperable naming semantics for this emerging digital species.

Scale: From 10x to 100x — domain strategies to manage mass-device identity lifecycles.
Security: DNSSEC, DANE, TLS, and automated lifecycle governance to trust machine identities.
Governance: Interoperable standards, privacy-preserving verification, and sandbox pilots to test AI namespaces.

ICANN 2026 and the Rise of AI Domains: Preparing the Internet’s Naming Infrastructure

ICANN 2026 marks a turning point for scaling the internet's naming infrastructure to accommodate AI domains, IoT, and digital twins, giving each AI a verifiable 'digital birth certificate' to prove identity and enable trusted interactions. To achieve this, the post calls for interoperable naming standards, strong DNS security (DNSSEC and DANE), clear verification and revocation flows, privacy-preserving identity and data portability, and governance models plus sandbox pilots to responsibly test AI namespaces.

Digital Birth Certificates: Why Every AI and Digital Twin Needs a Domain Name

AI agents, digital twins, and billions of IoT devices need “birth certificates”—machine identities—within a scalable, secure AI domain naming infrastructure tied to the 2026 ICANN cycle. The post urges mapping AI and device identities to domains, adopting DNSSEC and privacy-respecting registries, and actively shaping ICANN policies to enable interoperable, trustworthy, and scalable AI domains and naming strategies.

Domain Strategy for Machine-Speed Growth: Scaling the Web for AI, IoT, and Digital Twins

As machines accelerate growth, every AI, IoT device, and digital twin will require unique domain names, driving a scalable, secure naming framework with DNSSEC, TLS, DANE, and automated lifecycle governance. The post offers a practical 12–24 month roadmap for ICANN 2026 readiness, advocating a tiered domain strategy (brand, product, and device names) and proactive policy engagement to enable trustworthy AI/IoT identities worldwide.
