Google is trembling with fear

News: According to reports, Samsung is thinking about switching from Google to Microsoft's Bing as the default search engine on its Android smartphones, which would be the most shocking split since Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen.

  • The search agreement between Google and Samsung, which is presently up for negotiation, reportedly earns the search engine giant about US$3 billion annually.

  • Later this year, an arrangement of a similar nature covering Apple products that earns Alphabet $20 billion yearly is also due for renewal.

Why it matters: You can trust Google. Given that it controls 93% of the worldwide search industry, it has never had to contend with any serious search rivals. The first tangible indication that Google's unrivaled search supremacy on your phone is no longer a given is Samsung's skepticism.

  • Microsoft claimed a noticeable rise in users after introducing AI-enhanced capabilities, reaching 100 million daily active users last month even though Bing is still far behind Google.

Future Aspects: Consumers may benefit from this as healthy competition would encourage search businesses to provide higher-quality services. The hitch is that it gives artificial intelligence (AI) a bigger role in search, which is already giving some people pause.
