Alphabet (GOOGL 1.19%) (GOOG 1.07%) recently debuted at its I/O developer conference its long list of new AI services. The company also said that enterprise companies that switch from existing frontier AI models — namely, Anthropic’s Claude and OpenAI’s ChatGPT — to Google Gemini could save $1 billion annually if they migrated 80% of their workloads.
Determining how to pay for costly AI services has become an increasing concern for companies as they transition their employees and internal systems toward implementing more AI across workloads.
Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai said that using its new Gemini 3.5 Flash “delivers frontier-level capabilities at less than half the price” of comparable models.
That’s a big deal, and it could give the company an advantage in AI.
