And Google&#039;s cloud computing department also broke the $10 billion mark for the first time, achieving an operating profit of $1 billion.<\/p>\n<div class=\"pgc-img\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16397\" title=\"get-799\" src=\"https:\/\/www.1ai.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/get-799.jpg\" alt=\"get-799\" width=\"600\" height=\"448\" \/><\/div>\n<p data-track=\"41\">In a conference call after the release of the earnings report, Google CEO Sundar Pichai said that the generative AI solutions Google provides to cloud customers &quot;have brought us billions of revenue and are used by more than 2 million developers.&quot; In his letter to investors, he mentioned: &quot;We are innovating at every level of AI technology.&quot; Pichai also emphasized that Google&#039;s advantages in infrastructure and internal research teams will help the company seize many opportunities in the process of technological development.<\/p>\n<p data-track=\"42\">Earlier, there were reports that Google had considered acquiring the startup Wiz for $23 billion to enhance its cloud security product line, but Wiz decided to abandon the deal and instead pursue an initial public offering (IPO), which also attracted a lot of attention in the financial community.<\/p>\n<p data-track=\"43\">Since Google surpassed $2 trillion in market value in April, it has also begun rolling out AI overviews in search powered by its large language model Gemini. However, users found that the tool provided strange answers to certain queries, so Google had to manually remove these features. Despite this, Pichai said that the launch of AI overviews has led to &quot;increased search usage and improved user satisfaction with results.&quot;<\/p>\n<p data-track=\"44\">In addition, Google also announced that it would abandon its original plan to phase out third-party cookies, and Google Chrome browser will require users to make an &quot;informed choice&quot;, a decision that also responded to the relevant practices of Safari and Firefox. Pichai said in the earnings call that he believed that &quot;user choice is the best way forward&quot;, adding that the company will continue to invest in privacy-enhancing technologies and listen to feedback from all parties in the ecosystem.<\/p>\n<p data-track=\"45\">Alphabet&#039;s other businesses also saw good growth. Google&#039;s advertising business reached $64.6 billion, while YouTube advertising revenue increased by 131% year-on-year to $8.6 billion. In addition, the division&#039;s revenue, including subscriptions, platforms, and devices, was $9.3 billion. Google expects that with the upcoming hardware launch in August, the launch of the already announced Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro Fold, the future business will usher in another wave of growth.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Google has been busy lately.
