Is Google slow on the AI train? Might be the first real risk for them in a long time. 

Was also trying out you.com recently, and their performance and results are very impressive. Definitely expect a lot of innovation for search engines in the future

After starting to play with ChatGPT and admittedly being slow to the game, i can imagine why a search engine was slow to integrate it given how big fake news is an issue in todays political climate. Also given the stock price no one would want to think about growth or innovations except those that do not have a choice or are private enterprises.

With ChatGPT I wonder if the idea of absolute truth is just completely dead now. Maybe in the future, ai will just generate content with % accuracies and simply add sources.

Score one for Microsoft. At 48 years of age, the software giant may be old by tech standards, but it’s performing better than younger rival Alphabet, as their March quarter numbers showed today. Both companies posted better results than they had for the December quarter, although that’s a low bar, given that neither showed much growth at all then. For the most recent quarter, Microsoft reported 7% higher revenue as growth in its cloud business and commercial software sales helped offset the bottom falling out of devices and PC-related software sales. In contrast, Google parent Alphabet eked out just 3% top-line growth, a result of the stalled digital ad market, which accounts for most of its revenue. theinformation.com/briefi..

Microsoft reported 7% revenue growth to $52.9 billion in the three months ending in March, with most of the growth driven by its Azure cloud computing and business software units as sales in its Windo

Alphabet had some good news to highlight, however. For the first time its cloud computing unit turned an operating profit, of $191 million. You’d have good reason to be wary of that number: Alphabet revealed on Friday that it changed how it allocates costs against its businesses in a way that made the cloud unit’s bottom line look much healthier. Still, let’s not be nitpickers. Google Cloud’s revenue increase of 28%, in a period when companies are scrutinizing spending on IT, is a decent result. And it shows the wisdom of Alphabet keeping its investment in the business, which reduces its reliance on advertising. theinformation.com/briefi..

For all that, this was Microsoft’s quarter—the period when its success in rolling out ChatGPT-powered advances in its Bing search engine and cloud services positioned it to take market share. Indeed, Microsoft Azure matched Google Cloud in revenue growth, which is impressive given that Azure is bigger. It also performed better in search, with 10% growth, although that’s less impressive given that Microsoft is much smaller in that sector, so it’s easier to post faster growth. And as weak as Google’s search growth was—2%—it was still an improvement on its December-quarter performance when revenue dipped. But of the two, Microsoft looks to have the advantage. theinformation.com/briefi.. That certainly seems to be how investors see it. Microsoft stock rose 8.5% in after-hours trading, while Alphabet stock rose just 1.1%. Microsoft is ascendant in tech right now. Can this last?
