According to Brad Freeman (@StockMarketNerd), a significant portion of iPhone search activity has moved from using Google Search ($GOOGL) through Safari to Alphabet's Gemini app, raising concerns about internal competition within Alphabet's ecosystem. This shift indicates a cannibalization of browser-based search by AI-powered apps, which may affect Google's core ad revenue streams (source: Brad Freeman, Twitter, May 8, 2025). For crypto traders, this trend highlights the growing adoption of AI-driven search tools, which could boost interest and investment in AI-related tokens and Web3 search projects, as the demand for decentralized and privacy-focused alternatives rises in parallel with mainstream AI adoption.
