Microsoft’s Bing, the search engine you absolutely forgot about until three months ago, may be on the brink of a comeback so major that it has Google shaking in its boots. The New York Times <\/em>reports<\/a> that Samsung has been considering using Bing as the default search engine for its phones, replacing long-time partner Google.<\/p>\n

While, as the Times noted, it’s not explicitly clear that the launch of Bing’s AI-enabled search drove Samsung to consider ditching Google, that possibility has caused internal \u201cpanic” at Google, which brings in about $3 billion annually from the Samsung partnership. As a result, Google has apparently put AI development into overdrive.<\/p>\n

But why does Google care about a deal that makes up less than two percent of the company’s $162 million search ads business? Because a loss like that is one ugly crack in an otherwise impenetrable facade. Google’s primary money-making business is search ads and the New York Times<\/em> calls “AI competitors like the new Bing… the most serious threat<\/a> to Google\u2019s search business in 25 years.” <\/p>\n

Plus, the AI market is heating up, and Google wants to be a contender. As it rushes to build a new AI-based search engine, the company is upgrading its existing search with AI features under a project named Magi. Other product ideas in development include a tool that uses AI to generate images in Google Image results and another that teaches users a new language via AI text conversations.<\/p>\n

But Google may have a long road ahead of it. Its AI chatbot Bard was released last month to mixed reviews<\/a> as ChatGPT continued to impress. Now that Samsung’s eye is wandering, Google has to step up its game before it gets stepped on.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
