About this listen

Alphabet ($GOOGL) is the tech giant behind Google, YouTube, Android and a sprawling ecosystem that started as a Stanford search project and later reorganized into Alphabet to separate the reliable core from ambitious moonshots. In this episode we unpack that dual strategy: a dominant, data-rich advertising machine that funds big bets like Waymo and Verily, plus a fast-growing cloud business and massive investments in AI across products. The hosts debate the trade-offs—can Alphabet’s scale, talent, and AI push keep it ahead of rivals and disruptive AI tools, or will regulatory pressure, fierce competition, and the heavy cost of the AI arms race clip its wings? Is it the future’s indispensable platform or a behemoth wrestling with existential risks?
