Chrome isn’t being used to its full potential, the founder of Google’s generative AI team has explained, days before a judge rules on whether Google should be broken up, potentially through the sale of its web browser.
"Google built Chrome as a way to defend against potential competitors in the future. So by owning their browser, they can secure a spot for their search," AI pioneer Jad Tarifi has outlined in an interview.
This strategy may have worked for the past 17 years, but the vultures are already circling the world’s most popular internet browser. With a judge set to rule on the search giant’s future by the end of month, the tech world anxiously waits for the gavel to fall to get more clarity on what will happen next.
