What is the future of Big Tech?

Synopsis

In the short term, big tech companies like Google, Facebook, and Amazon are experiencing significant growth, each expanding at nearly 20%. Even if users are not directly engaging with Facebook, they are still influenced by its services like WhatsApp and Instagram, which track user activity across the Internet. The infrastructure of the Internet heavily relies on Amazon Web Services and Google's cloud services, making it difficult to envision a scenario where these companies could fail. The online advertising market is dominated by Google and Facebook, which continue to capture a growing share of digital ad revenue while other companies struggle. However, regulatory pressures may slow down these giants, similar to past restrictions on IBM and Microsoft. As the tech landscape evolves, it is uncertain whether today's leading companies will remain at the forefront during the next technological revolution, especially as concerns about screen time and smartphone usage grow.
