If you really want to understand the reasons that the U.S. Department of Justice brought antitrust actions against Google, I highly reccomend this AdTechGod(™) Pod featuring Chalice Custom Algorithms co-founder and CEO, Adam Heimlich in conversation with AdTechGod (™) . Adam skillfully contextuallizes the case by comparing it historical landmark antitrust cases such as Standard Oil of Ohio and, more recently, Microsoft. This is an executive level summary that your boss (or you, if you’re being honest with yourself) might actually understand. “In the US, “it's not illegal to have a monopoly just to abuse monopoly power.” Adam also discusses potential remedies in the context of historical precedent. Net net, this is twenty-three minutes of pure gold that will make you smarter. https://lnkd.in/evTK6pHc

Special Episode: The Potential Breakup of Google: More Choices and Innovation In this episode, Adam Heimlich, CEO and Co-Founder of Chalice Custom Algorithms , joins the AdTechGod Pod to discuss the Google antitrust trial and its impact on the adtech industry. He explains that the adtech industry has been dominated by Google, causing fear and mistrust among industry players. The trial will bring to light Google's dominance and potentially lead to a new era of competition and innovation. Adam breaks down the antitrust case, comparing it to the Standard Oil and Microsoft cases, and explains how Google's control over the tech stack and data prevents competition and stifles innovation.

Is Google the modern-day utility company monopoly akin to AT&T in the 80s? Recent insights from the WSJ reveal Google's 90% market share dominance in the search industry, with Microsoft's Bing trailing at 4%. The "Fly Wheel" partnership between Apple and Google further highlights the impact, with Apple using Google's search engine on its flagship devices, resulting in significant revenue for both tech giants in the multi-billions respectively. Judge Mehta potentially breaking up Google's "monopoly" could have far-reaching implications for two major tech industry players.

Google search results have degraded progressively over time. There is just one thing that can be clearly pointed. We are now in the era of what I am terming the #techroteconomy . We have unqualified nobodies driving beloved tools into the ground for their personal motives. If you have to see where it started, look no further than the man leading Google Search today, who “allegedly” played with metrics, removed core search improvements and ran Yahoo search into the ground. https://lnkd.in/dBrgDjMf

Imagine being responsible for a system where a 0.01% improvement means adding millions to a company's bottom line daily. That's the magic and the pressure behind Google's ad-ranking algorithm. And it’s more than just Google's earnings on the line. A slight glitch can mean significant losses for other industries, e.g. travel. h/t to Michael Del Balso from Tecton for the insight. — (link to the full episode in the comments) #ML #MLOps #MachineLearning
