Sundar Pichai, CEO of Google, testified in a federal hearing regarding the government's proposal to dismantle parts of the company due to monopoly issues in online search. He argued that such actions would restrict Google's ability to invest in technology and undermine its innovation processes. Judge Amit P. Mehta previously ruled that Google maintained an illegal search monopoly, and the hearing could shape the regulatory landscape for the tech industry as it competes in developing new AI-based products. This case is seen as a critical moment for U.S. government oversight of major tech firms.
Mr. Pichai argued that the government's proposal would hinder investment in new technology, affecting Google's ability to innovate and maintain its search dominance.
The Google search case represents a significant test of U.S. efforts to regulate tech giants and their influence on commerce and information.
