Concerns about Big Tech
Feels strange to defend Big Tech; however, we’re at an unusual historic moment. I’m wondering about the motivations behind forcing Alphabet (Google’s parent company) to sell Google Chrome (which will end up being both a hit to Alphabet and to Apple due to shared search revenue). This coming specifically at a time when AI chatbots such as Open AI’s ChatGPT is gaining such prominence and is a clear threat to Google.
Google took on Gemini and integrated it into their search engine. All this to say that, in fact, Google search has plenty of competition right now, and likely facing its most significant challengers since the early 2010s.
