Google Search Grows Despite Slower Pace | Business and Finance News

Google Search drove Alphabet’s massive $63.3 billion quarter, up 17% year-over-year — a slight slowdown from last quarter’s 19%, but still stellar for a business that size. Surprisingly, AI tools like Gemini (with 950M monthly users) are boosting search usage, not cannibalizing it. Total Alphabet revenue jumped 24% to $119.8 billion, fueled by an 82% surge in Google Cloud and strong YouTube growth. While the next quarter’s comparison will be tougher, the two-year trend remains healthy — suggesting AI concerns may be overblown for now, as the core business holds strong.
