Following a slowdown in growth within its cloud division, Google has decided to downsize in this area. The company is making strategic changes to increase its investments in the field of artificial intelligence.
In January, Google strengthened its position in the AI sector by investing 1 billion dollars in Anthropic, a competitor to OpenAI. Additionally, it is known that the company is planning a 20 billion dollar investment in renewable energy to boost its artificial intelligence capabilities.
During this process, Google has also implemented workforce changes, such as a voluntary exit program for its Pixel and Android teams. All these steps indicate that Google Cloud's AI-focused growth target will continue to play a critical role in the company's future.
With these strategic changes, Google aims to achieve a stronger position in the fields of cloud services and artificial intelligence.
