Google CEO Sundar Pichai has set an ambitious goal for the company's AI chatbot, Gemini, aiming to reach 500 million users by the end of 2025. This target comes as Google seeks to position Gemini as a leading AI technology, surpassing rivals like Microsoft-backed ChatGPT, which reportedly has around 300 million weekly users. Pichai's confidence in Google's AI capabilities was expressed in an internal memo, highlighting the company's belief in having the best artificial intelligence technology on the market. The push for Gemini's adoption is part of a broader strategy to integrate AI into Google's Workspace applications, offering generative AI features in Gmail, Docs, Sheets, and more, without additional costs for Business and Enterprise plan users. This move is intended to boost productivity and attract more users to Google's AI ecosystem, amidst a competitive landscape where AI tools are becoming central to business operations.
