Weekend Warp Edition: 2

Weekend Warp

In technology, there are decades where nothing happens. And then there are weeks where decades happen. In the last few months, technology seems to be moving at warp speed. To make some sense out of this, I pick three to five stories every week which are the most significant of all.

So here is the Weekend Warp:

Google's Antitrust Battle

In 1998, the US government took on 微软 in a major antitrust battle. While Microsoft eventually won the battle, for a long time it lost the war, as it was reduced to a shadow of its former mighty self.

Last week, the US took on another mighty warrior, the $1.7 trillion 谷歌 , questioning its dominant search share and monopoly practices. The 10-week trial will interestingly pit two Indian-Americans against each other too – Judge Amit P. Mehta takes on Sundar Pichai!

This will be a trial to watch.

Microsoft's Copyright Infringement

Talking of Microsoft, the AI and software major has made a landmark announcement - it has pledged to assume legal responsibility for any copyright infringement over material generated by the its Generative AI software it offers to businesses in Word, PowerPoint and its coding tools, as major concerns over plagiarism and copyright issues has made its enterprise customers balk.

This could change the game too.

China's Own LLMs

On the other side of the world, China has unleashed its own LLMs – not one, but 130 of them!

字节跳动 , 百度 , SenseTime 商汤科技 and 腾讯 are all in the game, with Tencent having an edge due to the ubiquity of its Weixin/WeChat super app. All of them, predictably, have been cleared by the Chinese authorities.

The space is certainly heating up….at warp speed.
