It\u2019s a big milestone that marks just how important AI is to the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AI is helping Google make money as well. Alphabet reported $88.3 billion in revenue <a href=\"https:\/\/abc.xyz\/assets\/71\/a5\/78197a7540c987f13d247728a371\/2024q3-alphabet-earnings-release.pdf\">for the quarter<\/a>, with Google Services (which includes Search) revenue of $76.5 billion, up 13 percent year-over-year, and Google Cloud (which includes its AI infrastructure products for other companies) revenue of $11.4 billion, up 35 percent year-over-year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Operating incomes were also strong. Google Services hit $30.9 billion, up from $23.9 billion last year, and Google Cloud hit $1.95 billion, significantly up from last year\u2019s $270 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The results indicate that, while many people feel Google isn\u2019t as reliable as it once was, the company continues to operate a very strong business. AI is a huge focus across Google, with the release of features like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2024\/8\/28\/24230490\/google-custom-ai-chatbots-gems-launch\">custom AI chatbots powered by Gemini<\/a> (called \u201cGems\u201d), <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2024\/8\/27\/24229843\/google-meets-automatic-ai-note-taking-launch\">automatic AI note-taking in Google Meet<\/a>, and a bunch of generative AI tools <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2024\/9\/18\/24247559\/youtube-ai-videos-veo-inspiration-tab\">to help YouTube creators<\/a>. Google\u2019s well-reviewed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/24225221\/google-pixel-9-pro-xl-review-ai-gemini-screen-battery-camera\">Pixel 9 lineup of smartphones<\/a> were <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/24219355\/google-pixel-9-ai-features-screenshots-add-me-magic-editor\">also packed with AI tools<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn Search, our new AI features are expanding what people can search for and how they search for it,\u201d CEO Sundar Pichai says in a statement. \u201cIn Cloud, our AI solutions are helping drive deeper product adoption with existing customers, attract new customers and win larger deals. And YouTube\u2019s total ads and subscription revenues surpassed $50 billion over the past four quarters for the first time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Google is facing a potentially tough road ahead, however, following the August ruling that the company <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2024\/8\/5\/24155520\/judge-rules-on-us-doj-v-google-antitrust-search-suit\">is a monopolist<\/a> in the search and advertising markets. That case, brought by the US Department of Justice, is now in its remedies phase, and while there\u2019s still <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2024\/8\/6\/24214641\/google-us-monopoly-ruling-what-happens\">a ways to go<\/a> for the dust to settle, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2024\/10\/8\/24265832\/google-search-antitrust-remedies-framework-android-chrome-play\">a Google breakup is on the table<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This might explain why some of their stuff stinks these days.
