The Runner Up is…

Google, once a leader in unleashing the latest innovation in tech, is struggling to make a dent in the generative AI landscape. The giant is slowly slipping its position with many of its talents exiting the firm and rivals unleashing exciting new AI products and services – the likes of GPT-4 Turbo by OpenAI and Meta’s generative AI ad features.

It’s not that the tech giant is not trying. Recently, Google rolled out a bunch of generative AI features to enhance its search experience for the world and advertisers. In FY23 Q3, the company recorded a whopping $59.65 revenue from the advertising business and Search out of the $76.69 billion in total revenue.

Google chief Sundar Pichai also emphasised how ads will ‘play an important role’ in the new search experience, and help in increasing the revenue multifolds in the coming months.?

Even though Pichai has not missed a chance to call Google an ‘AI-first’ company, his actions speak otherwise. There is this other side to Google, where it is struggling to keep up with the human-mimicking technology, and busy criticising others instead.

One summer, the company dealt with the ‘Is LaMDA sentient?’ mess and the next summer, it lost $102 billion in market value after Bard answered a basic general knowledge question inaccurately during the live public demo.?

The company, which is a household name on the internet, has been scrambling to play catch up in delivering AI products. And now, there is a lot of expectation from Gemini, which the tech giant is expected to roll out in a phased manner next year.?
