Wait what?
AI Startup Perplexity Makes $34.5 Billion Bid for Googleβs Chrome Browser https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-08-12/perplexity-makes-34-5-billion-bid-for-google-s-chrome-browser?embedded-checkout=true
I even trust an AI startup less than an ad tech company like Google. They donβt have that kind of money, but then again, they might have AI batshit crazy investors. AI overhype is reached max with delusional investors and tech bros

Based on past experiences with Microsoft with similar case, I don't believe the government will succeed in breaking up Google. Big companies with a lot of money tend to win these battles. While it's unlikely, I'd still love to see a company like Google or Microsoft face real consequences for their actions. A boy can dream, canβt he? π![]()
