you say just google it. that's the way it is.r guy said the following... >> this is just another example why algorithms like the one that operates google, should be transparent. it should be not left up to one group to control what we see, when we see it, and they are just passing around the megaphone to whoever they choose , and that is how this works. >> trace: transparency would be a very good thing, i think in this situation. >> i agree and you are right, google is like a brand but when it comes to transparency, people are being bothered by this, they feel like they are being censored and that is not transparent. you look at google, search engine optimization results. google can change what you see based off key words, so if they can change what you see based off of that, who's to say they can't hide information, which is what we saw with that report. i think them -- i think they had a fantastic point that this is a bigger issue. every american should question what's going on. this has to do with our first amendment, freedom

of course, what's on google news? when people go to google news, if they're going to be protected and have protection for they have a responsibility at least to try to present a fair apply for our platforms and not be so blatant in their bias. the report focuses on google and influence on us pilots. what about elections and in other countries the, you know, is it beyond the realm of possibility that there could be a significant impact there to, you know, i mean, the, why would, why would it be limited? we know that the government talks to social media companies all the time. this is a big topic right now in this country. they, they were just an argument before the supreme court. as a matter of fact, people say the government doesn't have a right to tell a good. so yeah, we shouldn't be allowed to go to these media the platforms and say, take down these cove, it stories on vaccines take down the stories that we feel are. yeah, there are wrong, or i missed information or this information. so if they're doing that, who k

chinese national arrested in the bay area for allegedly stealing confidential trade secrets from google. >> this is ktvu fox two news at 730. >> and that man was living in the east bay and had worked for google as a software engineer. that arrest tops the news at 730 tonight. hello everyone, i'm heather holmes. we got a look today at theúfederal indictment. our crystal bailey is here now. and crystal, the confidential information pertained to one of google's core businesses. ñ> that's right. the indictment released this morning says the google employee allegedly stole more than 500 confidential files surrounding the development of artificial intelligence and replicated the information at two chinese companies. the fbi arrested 38 year old lin wei ding, leon, wednesday morning from his home in newark. ding, a chinese citizen, started working as a software engineer at google in 2019, according to the department of justice. he's accused of stealing artificial intelligence related software. us attorney general merrick garland, during a visit to san francisco, shared the u.s. leads in ai tec

that is where google and gemini are probably better than apple and where google already has all thatnfrastructure in place for cloud processing. this would be a huge boost to apple. they could potentially get paid for featuring gemini and they could potentially be getting a better ai model than what they are able to offer themselves, they can still use there is for the main tasks and leverage google for the outside tasks and not have to pay the gigantic server bills and engineering needed to craft servers for that cloud-based generative ai processing. so apple could be basically giving consumers the best of both types of generative ai while getting paid to do so. sonali: we've been talk about this in the vein of the iphone but apple is a massive ecosystem. i'm a first apple watch buyer a few days ago and you wonder how the ai ecosystem can start filtering across products, how could we think about that as the years go on? michael: i think you are exactly right, -- mark: i think you are exactly right, this is going to start with the iphone, the operating system is the same essentially

google already started gemini in a couple phones, and samsung is using google ai in its latest phonesthat came out a couple months ago, and they can do live translation between languages, and they can take a voice recording and scribe it on your device, and erasing objects in pictures, it can do that. it's not the break through that tim cook teasing, so the question is what else can gemini do for apple for them to leverage the language model, and like so many folks were saying here on the panel, it speaks to apple's inability so far, if this is true, at least, to come out with their own ai model and that should cause concern as well, because five or sex ix ye ago, they hired somebody to run that operation, and this is his baby, and right now it seems to be more leveraged on the google side and a rival more than it is building in house. >> if there's a partnership, do you think it will be an apple branded search engine or gemini? >> that's the biggest question. apple has siri on the phone and a lot of ai stuff going on under the hood but if they need to inject google technology in ther

that was the really eyeballs on google. that's why the stock was sold off, because they bumbled a.i., so many different times. this week it was about the 2.2 billion in stall base on apple phones that google, a trojan horse now coming in and stealing stuff from apple. so i thought it was originally a win-win for both companies, but it's definitively, in my brain, a bigger win for google to have that install base, and that's what rescued it. >> i thought the gemini announcement was interesting with apple, i think it's all incremental to people reassessing, i think that in terms of a.i. and impact, mic ron's a great example of this week a company with an a.i. bid and they're alive and well in terms of a.i. memory, this is another a.i. play. i think there's so few ways obviously other than nvidia and some of their suppliers, and some of the periphery directly there, and facebook, in concept, of course google is a company that you think is right in the middle of a.i., and we all know that they are, they've also been investing i

with search, it was pushing people into google plus ecosystem, so giving google the opportunity to serven that basis. we don't fully know how this is going to push people towards a similar thing. the way that ai is being monetized is still kind of being worked out, very much a cloud product at the moment. people providing the systems are making money from selling the cloud services. so it is a slightly different case from google being the default search engine in ios, does not mean regulators will not look at it, but it is not, excuse the pun, apples for apples. jonathan: i want to talk about gemini. it has not been a good start for google unveiling and rolling this out. i get that apple is behind, but is this something they want to go near at this point? alex: concerns with gemini are very much in the generation peace, and that was the colossal flub that they said they needed to fix and recognized it was a mistake. this stage, it looks like, and we do not fully know, and this deal is not signed, it is reported there were also talks with openai. but to be able to engage with it, ask ques

google, the justice department sued google for monopolizing digital advertising, they say, and i quote, through serial acquisitions and anticompetitive auction manipulation, google subverted competition in internet advertising technologies, end quote. look, google does represent both sides of the trade when it comes to placing ads in some online spaces they are facing increased competition with tiktok, but more important -- and this is what is so obscene and absurd, they have an exintestinal threat from generative ai which many people think is going to replace google search. if i have a specific question i go to chat gpc this law was out of date at the time it was filed because of these threats. it's kind of embarrassing, frankly, they're fighting the last war ouch besides if you want to place an ad online, you don't have to use google you can use trade desk they do an amazing job if you take one look at their incredible earnings growth and revenue, more and more people are just doing that. maybe justice should have read some research reports. take it from hold the buy. again, in actua

one of the executives working at google told the free press that working at google is like being in an. and because the culture at a place like google is so hyper liberal, i think that the company can no longer separate fact from fiction. it's baked into the cake, at this point. which is why the exposure of it, turning the lights on it has been helpful. i don't know if it will change anything but at least we all know what is going on. >> jesse: greg, they do say that sunlight is the best disinfectant. >> greg: yes, and it is also a good underarm deodorant. these impact statements, to appease the dei gods, you have to wonder about the opportunity costs. the product suffers from this because all of these workers have to do these with every little change. those impact statements are also to justify the existence and the salary of the dei department. imagine this mountain of nonsense paperwork that it generates for a useless department to appear useless. it is a scam. you've got to look at google broadly. gemini ai, rife with racism, right? they influenced the election on behalf of democra

there was news today that reportedly google and apple might team up for apple to license google's gemini model. i think that's a sign that these companies don't get that this is a new operating system that's emerging, it's not a feature to layer on top of existing tech platforms. >> brets, it's karen, thanks for being on today. it sounds like there are other names that you might like more than nvidia. can you tell us what those are? >> sure, on the private side, we think anthropic is extremely interest, and enterprises are scrambling to figure out how to deploy these things. and tesla is the most compelling a.i. story in the market. you're not being honest if you don't think that autonomous driving is not more likely to happen today than it was two years ago, because of the advances in a.i., and they have an amazing distribution network and their business model transforms if they can turn kind of their autonomous robo-taxi software into a working commercializable product. >> along those lines, brett, since you have a futurist, when you think about future ways to play a.i., there was an a

why would they want to tap into google? >> google has not matched out anything . when it comes to large language models. as apple reportedly develops its own large language models it makes sense to potentially team up with someone like google to power things on the iphone like using generative a.i. to compose a text message or to edit photos. it is very likely we could see that kind of collaboration in upcoming iphone models. >> youtube started to require creators to have a label on the videos to differentiate realistic looking videos using a.i. what would this look like to viewers like us? >> if somebody uploads video and it was -- and a.i. was used to create something that looks realistic but could easily pull somebody, you will see a description that says this contains altered or synthetic content or the sound of visual's was significantly edited or digitally created. this is to make sure that we are not being fooled into thinking about something israel would it never really happened. especially during an election year, that is important because we have to look
