Recent antitrust trials against Meta and Google have revealed a surprising admission from executives about declining user engagement with their flagship products. Both companies acknowledge that consumer interest is waning, particularly as artificial intelligence and emerging social media platforms pose new threats to their dominance. Apple, Google, and Meta helped shape modern digital experiences, but testimonies indicate that even their once-revolutionary services, like Facebook interactions and Google searches, may be losing traction. These changes reflect the fast-paced nature of tech innovation and the ongoing quest for relevance in a rapidly evolving landscape.
The admissions underscore the mounting pressure tech giants face amid new threats from artificial intelligence and new social media apps - and how quickly any product can get left behind.
Silicon Valley prides itself on innovation, change and a constant quest to find 'the next big thing.' The race for relevance is a constant one.
Executives indicated consumers are losing interest in some of the very tasks Facebook and Google were initially built for.
Eddy Cue, Apple's senior vice president of services, revealed last week that Google search queries on its devices decreased for the first time last month.
