Survey of 1,007: AI side hustlers report double the median income
Network Solutions surveyed 1,007 side hustlers: AI users reported $555/month average vs $333 for non-users, with the median doubling ($500 vs $250). The researchers themselves warn it's correlation, not proof of cause — early tool adopters also tend to be more serious founders. Still, it's the clearest data yet that AI is an income lever, not a money printer.
