Google Struggles to Monetize AI Mode Searches

Google is having a hard time making money from its AI Mode search feature. That is a major problem for the tech giant. The company is trying to figure out how to cash in on these smarter searches. Meanwhile, other companies are facing completely different pressures. Microsoft shareholders might force a vote over surging greenhouse gas emissions. Those emissions spiked even after the company promised to hit carbon-negative goals by twenty-thirty. At the same time, Anthropic insists humanity must spend eight hundred billion dollars on artificial intelligence. They claim that investment matters more than chips or the internet itself. OpenAI just dropped a budget-priced model called GPT-six point one Terra to rival pricier tools at a fraction of the cost.
