As earnings season continues to unfold, over 80% of S&P 500 (^GSPC) companies have now released their first-quarter results. To dissect the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on earnings, Market Domination Overtime welcomes The Transcript Editor and Founder of Avondale Asset Management Scott Krisiloff. Krisiloff acknowledges the first quarter earnings season has been stronger than expected, with consumers demonstrating resilience in the face of economic headwinds. However, a major theme that has emerged throughout the earnings reports is the crucial role of AI. Krisiloff notes that the tech companies with significant AI plays "are in one bucket," while the rest of the Fortune 500 corporations "very interested" in AI's potential to drive business growth and enhance their operations. He also notes how companies discussed how power-hungry AI systems are. "I think what we're seeing with AI is that it's this massive tool that's being built for humanity that has the potential to multiply economic output to levels that we haven't seen before, but, in order to do that, it's very energy-intensive," Krisiloff explains.

Google and the U.S. Justice Department wrapped up closing arguments on Friday over claims that the Alphabet unit has unlawfully dominated web search and related advertising, in a case the government contends could shape the “future of the internet.” U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta in Washington for hours grilled both sides with questions, probing whether competitive platforms such as ByteDance’s TikTok and Meta’s Facebook and Instagram are competitive substitutes for search advertising dollars. Mehta said a central issue was platform “substitute-ability” for advertisers, which the court must resolve.
Closing arguments are set to conclude in the US Justice Department's antitrust case against Alphabet's (GOOG, GOOGL) Google. The DOJ alleges that Google's deals to make its search engine the default on web browsers and devices allowed it to maintain an unfair monopolistic grip on the market.

Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:NVDA) has introduced a script that streamlines the setup of its GeForce Now cloud gaming service on Valve’s Steam Deck. The script automatically installs Google Chrome, configures the browser for gamepad use, and adds a GeForce Now shortcut to the user’s Steam library. Though the script handles the SteamOS terminal app for Chrome installation and gamepad support, some manual adjustments are necessary to optimize GeForce Now, the Verge reports.

Google's preeminence as an internet search engine is an illegal monopoly propped up by more than $20 billion spent each year by the tech giant to lock out competition, Justice Department lawyers argued at the closings of a high-stakes antitrust lawsuit. Google, on the other hand, maintains that its ubiquity flows from its excellence, and its ability to deliver results customers are looking for. “It would be an unprecedented decision to punish a company for winning on the merits,” Google’s lawyer, John Schmidtlein, said late Friday afternoon in summation of the company's closing arguments.
