Tech giants such as Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL)-owned Google and Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) in the Generative AI (Artificial Intelligence) space are competing to woo OpenAI’s clients. This comes as OpenAI, known for creating the most powerful AI chatbot, ChatGPT, grapples with internal challenges. As these companies are attracting OpenAI’s customers, Wall Street maintains a bullish outlook on the shares of GOOGL and AMZN.
Per a Wall Street Journal report, Google’s sales team initiated a targeted effort to encourage businesses to transition from OpenAI to its platform. As part of its campaign, Google matches its pricing with OpenAI, extends cloud credits to customers utilizing its AI software, and facilitates a seamless transition to its platform. On the other hand, Amazon emphasizes that customers can select from various AI systems rather than committing exclusively to OpenAI or a single vendor, in light of recent turmoil at OpenAI.
While these technology giants encourage businesses to broaden their AI vendor base, OpenAI’s representative pointed to a social media post where customers willingly opted to remain with the company. This could help alleviate concerns regarding uncertainties about its future. Whether OpenAI’s rivals can impact its market share and attract customers is still a story unfolding.
In the meantime, let’s examine the Street’s recommendation for Google and Amazon stocks.
What is the Prediction for Alphabet Stock?
Analysts maintain an optimistic outlook on Google stock. The company’s ongoing investment in AI to bolster its AI capabilities and capitalize on growing demand bodes well for growth. Further, the integration of AI into its products, particularly Cloud, and a rebound in the advertising market support its bull case.
Alphabet stock carries a Strong Buy consensus rating, reflecting 27 Buy and six Hold recommendations. The stock has gained about 57% year-to-date. Meanwhile, the average Google stock price target of $153.52 implies 10.85% upside potential from current levels.
