How Tech Giant Are Monopolizing AI
In 2024, tech giants have been strategically acquiring talent and technology from AI startups without formal acquisitions. Companies like Google, Amazon, and Microsoft have made deals with startups such as Character.AI, Adept, and Inflection. These agreements allow the corporations to access key personnel and AI innovations without the regulatory hurdles that typically accompany full acquisitions. For instance, Google gained Character.AI’s co-founder, while Amazon licensed Adept’s technology and hired its AI researchers. Microsoft similarly secured a deal with Inflection. While these pseudo-acquisitions help tech giants dominate the AI market, they raise concerns about competition and innovation. Regulators are beginning to investigate these moves, questioning their impact on the broader tech landscape. These partnerships highlight the evolving nature of acquisitions in the AI industry, with potential long-term effects on both startups and the labor market.
