The Verge

Google's AI, Gemini, is leveraging user data to enhance personalized responses, offering a competitive edge over rivals like OpenAI. The "Gemini with personalization" feature utilizes user search history and now accesses more data, like emails and Drive files, to craft tailored suggestions. This personalization extends beyond Gemini, aiming to improve interactions across Google's ecosystem. Google's data breadth allows Gemini to provide customized assistance without prior interactions, unlike other AI models.

Apple's upcoming Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in June is highly anticipated, but the lack of a big generative AI announcement so far is noticeable. Other tech giants like OpenAI, Microsoft, and Google have recently showcased their advancements in artificial intelligence. Apple's CEO Tim Cook mentioned "big opportunities" for generative AI, and there are speculations of potential partnerships with OpenAI and Google. Despite being late to the AI race, analysts believe Apple's strong consumer base and seamless product ecosystem could still give them an advantage. The WWDC will be crucial for Apple to address AI and retain investor interest.

Google, the Alphabet unit, has a competitive advantage in generative artificial intelligence (AI) due to its vast data and AI-optimized chips, according to Microsoft's response to an EU antitrust consultation. Microsoft highlighted concerns about the growing popularity of generative AI, which can generate human-like responses and its potential for misinformation. The report stated that Google's vertical integration, from chips to app stores, gives it an edge, while its access to proprietary data from Google Search Index and YouTube helps train its language model Gemini. Microsoft also defended partnerships in the AI space to promote competition and prevent anticompetitive advantages.

Tech and competition watchdog groups are urging the U.S. Department of Justice to investigate YouTube over concerns about its potential to dominate the home entertainment market. The groups argue that YouTube's growth as a cable and streaming service competitor, along with its pre-installation on smartphones and TVs, could give Google and Alphabet an unfair advantage. YouTube is already a top streaming service in the U.S., and its subscription streaming service, YouTube TV, is seen as a threat to competitors. Google is already facing antitrust lawsuits related to its dominance in online search and digital advertising technology.

Several major U.S. companies in the AI sector are urging their Taiwanese manufacturing partners, including Foxconn, to increase AI hardware production in Mexico. This move aims to decrease reliance on China and take advantage of the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA). Foxconn has invested $27 million in expanding its AI server production in Mexico and has already manufactured AI servers for major companies like Amazon, Google, Microsoft, and Nvidia. The rising presence of Taiwanese firms in Mexico is expected to reshape the country's industrial structure in the next decade, although challenges like crime and wage competition persist.

The upcoming quarterly results of Big Tech giants will shed light on the impact and sustainability of artificial intelligence (AI) investments. Analysts predict strong growth and earnings for Microsoft and Google, driven by their AI initiatives. Apple, although a late entrant in the AI space, is expected to show improvement in China sales. However, analysts have concerns about Meta's growth due to increased spending on AI infrastructure. Microsoft is well-positioned to capitalize on generative AI and its cloud business, while Amazon's AWS is poised to capture AI-driven demand. Google's AI Overviews feature has faced skepticism and concerns about its impact on advertising revenue. Nevertheless, Google remains the top destination for search and search ad spending.

Apple has quietly launched MLX, an open-source machine learning framework designed to run on Apple's chips. Although it may bring generative AI apps to Apple products in the future, it seems Apple has fallen behind in the AI space, with Google and OpenAI already battling it out with their advanced AI products. However, Apple's CEO Tim Cook has developed an internal chatbot service called "AppleGPT," and the company's Head of AI, John Giannandrea, aims to power Siri with generative AI. Apple's push into AI comes late compared to rivals like Google and Microsoft.

Apple and Google are reportedly in negotiations to integrate Google's AI model, Gemini, into the iPhone. This move would provide new Gemini-powered features to iPhones, according to sources familiar with the talks. In addition to Google's AI, Apple has also considered using OpenAI's model and held discussions with the company. If the deal with Google goes through, it would give Gemini an advantage over its competitors, including OpenAI and xAI. The integration could also help Gemini recover from controversy it faced earlier this year, when it was criticized for generating inaccurate historical images of people of color.
