Is Bing The New Google?

  • Samsung Electronics Co Ltd (OTC: SSNLF) weighs replacing Alphabet Inc’s (NASDAQ: GOOG) (NASDAQ: GOOGL) Google for Microsoft Corp’s (NASDAQ: MSFT) Bing as the default search service for its devices.

  • Samsung’s move could jeopardize roughly $3 billion in annual revenue for Google, Bloomberg reports citing New York Times.

  • Bing’s threat to Google’s search dominance gained traction lately with the addition of OpenAI’s technology to provide ChatGPT-like responses to user queries.

  • Google is also rolling out Bard, its chatbot search assistant, but at a very cautious pace.

  • According to IDC, Samsung shipped 261 million smartphones in 2022, all running Google’s Android software.

  • Samsung has long-established partnerships with Microsoft and Google, and its devices come preloaded with a library of apps and services from both, such as OneDrive and Google Maps.

  • Google is amid efforts to update and renew its search services, including adding artificial intelligence features to its existing offerings, under a project named Magi, which has more than 160 people working on it.

  • Between its Samsung deal and one with Apple Inc (NASDAQ: AAPL), which the Times report valued at $20 billion in annual revenue, Google has a commanding market share in mobile devices in the U.S. and much of the rest of the world.

  • Price Action: GOOG shares traded lower by 2.43% at $106.80 premarket on the last check Monday.
