Skeptics thought the alphabet would report disappointing search volumes in the second quarter.
The use of Chatbot is growing and in May. The commentary on Apple’s manager sounded an alarm clock.
But Google’s father surprised everyone with the accelerating search scope.

From the “amazing seven” stock, Alphabet(Nasdaq: googl)(Nasdaq: goog) Trade in the cheapest ratings in a significant margin and over the past few years.
The main reason is the perception or fear that new artificial intelligence (AI) chat programs such as Chatgpt will disrupt the Google search, which will reduce the largest and most profitable alphabet and the most profitable business.
However, in the second quarter Alfabet, Chief Business Officer Philip Schindler revealed a number that should be silenced by Naysayers. After this number is a major disclosure, look for alphabetical stock to increase.
Although the income in the Alfabet search and the other segment has increased by less than 12% Q2, increased prices per ad can also swim those results. On the other hand, the alphabet skeptics checked the paid clicks that illuminate the scope of the search activity. In other words, ad prices inflation can retain income growth, but if paid clicks begin to decline, this may be an early sign of search.
However, during the conference, Schindler emphasized the number with analysts, which should be silenced by skeptics as the paid clicks increased by 4%.

Fortunately, this 4% growth marks momentum over the first quarter, which increased 3 -point slowing only 2%. That great Q1 fall was the feed for skeptics, who may have thought we were “typping point” when Ai Chatbots took over the search for Google.
Fear was increased in May when An apple The executive Eddie Cue noted in antimonopol deposits that Apple saw Apple’s Safari browser for the first time in 22 years. Sounds pretty terrible, isn’t it?
However, this statement may have been mainly related to the use or lack of Apple Safari. Meanwhile, 4% of growth repeated re -recents seem to refute the thesis of the bear, at least for the time being. Although it can be an anomalous positive bump, it seems that the first quarter may have been an anomaly as well. After all, at the end of February, there was a sincere fear of fear, which caused many advertisers and consumers to return the first quarter.

This was probably surprised by the Alfabet bears that the search volume could actually be re -damaged. Eventually it was reported that ChatgPT users have since March. December To 500 million increased from 300 million. And, of course, Chatgpt is just one of several conversation programs accelerating.
And yet, parallel growth of paid clicks in the search occurs. This may be for several reasons:
Chatbots and searches are not the same thing. When exploring the topic, I continue to use Chatbots and Google search. Obviously, Chatbots tend to provide more information about open questions, while the search, as the name shows, is still a very good tool for finding some information. And remember that Google does not drink money for every search. Therefore, it is possible, or even likely, that conversation programs can take away the flow from some searches in margins, but not a “money” search when the customer is looking for a specific good or service.
The habits of 20 years are difficult to break. For many, Google’s search was a virtual monopoly and everyday life, and it may be harder to break everyday life than some may think.
The alphabet strengthened the search in the Chatbots Age. Last year, the alphabet has an improved search with AI reviews to ask most questions AI fed summary. Over time, the leadership has found a way to make money for AI reviews, equivalent to traditional search. And in May this year, Google released Ai Mode search, which uses Google’s most advanced Gemini LLM to provide more detailed answers, much like a traditional chat room but Google’s search interface.
When combining all three of these elements – Google recharging Chatbot features, look for the search for a daily billion people, and the traditional search is still useful for commercial queries – it may not be difficult to see why paid clicks were able to grow even at a age when Chatbots are growing.
Given that the alphabet had such a discount compared to peers on the subject, it is no wonder when the shares are increasing in the near future.
