- 🤖 Why Google's CEO is losing sleep over AI
Good morning and welcome to the latest issue of neonpulse!
Here are the AI headlines making waves:
🌊 AI keeping Google’s CEO up at night
🌊 Googles search dominance under threat
Let’s get into it!
AI Nightmares
Apparently Elon Musk isn’t the only tech leader concerned about the potential dangers of AI.
In a recent 60 minutes interview, Google CEO Sundar Pichai had this to say:
“It can be very harmful if deployed wrongly, and the technology is moving fast. So does that keep me up at night? Absolutely.”
In order to minimize the potential downsides of AI, Pichai said that governments around the world will need to work together in order to develop a global framework for regulating AI, with the CEO particularly concerned about the ability of AI tools to produce misinformation.
“It will be possible with AI to easily create a video where it could be you or me saying something that we never said, and it would look real,” said Pichai.
“On a societal scale, it can cause a lot of harm.”
And while the idea of regulating a technology that could cause serious harm to humanity sounds like a smart move, with Bill Gates commenting that it would be very difficult (if not impossible) to get every country in the world to agree on how we should regulate AI…
The likelihood of meaningful regulation being introduced in the near future doesn’t appear to be very high.

GoogleAI
Google is one of the most widely used webpages in the world, with web searches providing the company with over $200 billion dollars in ad revenue each year.
Yet thanks to Microsoft’s recent introduction of highly popular AI features, Microsoft has been successfully pulling users away from Google over to their Bing search engine platform, causing people inside Google to panic.
Every 1% of search marketshare that Bing is able to steal away from Google represents an additional $2 billion dollars in annual revenue for Microsoft, putting Google under serious pressure to release AI functionality in order to stay relevant and maintain its search dominance.
In response to the threat, Google is racing to build an all-new search engine powered by AI technology, although no hard date has been set as to when this new search product will be launched.
In the mean time, Google is rushing to integrate AI features into its main search engine with plans to release the upgraded functionality to a limited number of users next month, so stay tuned and we’ll keep you posted.
