This includes AI-powered features like Lens (visual search) and Circle to Search, as well as AI Overviews.

The company has a wide moat in this area because it essentially controls the gateway to the internet through its ownership of the world&#8217;s most used web browser in Chrome and smartphone operating system in Android, both of which have over 70% market share. Meanwhile, through a search revenue-sharing deal with <strong>Apple<\/strong> to be its default search engine, it reaches much of the rest of the world. Alphabet has also signed a deal for Gemini to be the AI engine behind Apple Intelligence.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<figure data-testid=\"article-figure-image\" class=\"yf-750ceo\">\n<div class=\"image-container yf-lglytj\" style=\"--max-height: 540px;\">\n<div class=\"image-wrapper yf-lglytj\" style=\"--aspect-ratio: 960 \/ 540; --img-max-width: 960px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"yf-750ceo\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->Image source: Getty Images.<!-- HTML_TAG_END -->  <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->Equally important as its Gemini model, Alphabet has also created world-class custom AI chips called Tensor Processing Units (TPUs). The company developed these chips over a decade ago, and they have been battle-tested, running much of the company&#8217;s internal workloads. It uses these custom ASICs (application-specific integrated circuits) to train Gemini and run inference, which gives it a structural cost advantage over competitors. Its TPUs are both cheaper than <strong>Nvidia<\/strong>&#8216;s graphics processing units (GPUs), and they consume less energy. This helps create a positive feedback loop, as with its cost savings, it can pour more money into AI infrastructure to build better models at a cheaper cost and grow out its cloud computing business. Alphabet is doing just that, with plans to spend a massive $175 billion to $185 billion on data center infrastructure this year.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->Alphabet is also starting to let some of its customers use its TPUs, creating another revenue growth driver. <strong>Morgan Stanley<\/strong> has estimated that Alphabet could generate $13 billion in revenue for every 500,000 TPUs its customers deploy. Meanwhile, the company is in talks with a few neocloud companies, including Fluidstack, as a way to expand the use of TPUs outside of Google Cloud.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: none\" data-testid=\"read-more\">\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->As the only company with both a leading LLM and AI chips, Alphabet is one of the most important AI companies in the world and a top AI stock to own.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->Before you buy stock in Alphabet, consider this:<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->The <em>Motley Fool Stock Advisor<\/em> analyst team just identified what they believe are the\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/api.fool.com\/infotron\/infotrack\/click?apikey=35527423-a535-4519-a07f-20014582e03e&amp;impression=9fa79a25-8207-466b-b3b3-bfd060829f89&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.fool.com%2Fmms%2Fmark%2Fe-sa-bbn-dyn-headline%3Faid%3D11234%26source%3Disaeditxt0001181%26company%3DAlphabet%26ftm_cam%3Dsa-bbn-evergreen%26ftm_veh%3Darticle_pitch_feed_yahoo%26ftm_pit%3D18781&amp;utm_source=yahoo-host-full&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=article&amp;referring_guid=96684d19-da12-4dd6-8d8f-929dbeca26e9\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:10 best stocks;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">10 best stocks<\/a><\/strong> for investors to buy now\u2026 and Alphabet wasn\u2019t one of them.
