Google Gemini has 650 million monthly users while ChatGPT claims 700 million. But raw user counts don't tell the full story of who's winning the AI assistant wars. However, the real winner might not be the smartest model, but the one that is hardest to avoid. Google has a history of using its ecosystem dominance to win. Chrome has 65% market share. Android has 70%. If Google makes Gemini the default search engine on these platforms, ChatGPT faces an uphill battle.
Federal antitrust regulators failed to break up Meta, marking a significant setback for government efforts to rein in Big Tech dominance through structural remedies.
Apple plans to pay Google approximately $1 billion per year to integrate Google's 1.2 trillion parameter Gemini model into a redesigned Siri.
Google just launched Gemini 3 with record-breaking benchmark scores and a new coding platform called Antigravity. Here's what it means for AI competition.
The US is expected to add 18.2 gigawatts of battery storage to the grid in 2025, setting a new record as energy demand surges and renewable adoption accelerates.
AI isn't just writing code; it's redesigning the physical world. By using 'biomimicry' and physics simulations, generative AI is creating lighter, stronger components that no human engineer could conceive.
Agentic AI systems that can make decisions and act autonomously are rapidly emerging, with 23% of organizations already scaling these systems and Microsoft and NVIDIA launching a dedicated startup accelerator.
