Google's AI search problem finally shows up in the earnings report, some investors believe

AI summary Google's stock fell by as much as ten percent after third-quarter search revenue rose about 12 percent, below the 15 percent analysts had forecast. Executive Philipp Schindler said rapidly growing AI mode queries weighed on results because they earn less than classic search. Cloud revenue jumped 103 percent from a year earlier to $30.7 billion, and quarterly capital spending reached $51.4 billion, with 2026 guidance held at $195 billion to $205 billion and a higher figure planned for 2027. CEO Sundar Pichai said the Gemini app now has one billion users.

Google Business Profiles AI-Powered Messaging Expands

AI summary Google appears to be widening access to an AI-driven messaging tool in Google Business Profile, first reported in June and since updated. Customers who find a business on Search or Maps can text it through their phone's built-in messaging app, where an AI agent replies to common questions, such as menu items or reservation times, free of charge. Questions the agent cannot handle are passed to the business owner, who can step in at any point. The agent works only for users on RCS-capable phones and networks; other messages go directly to the owner's phone, and Mike Blumenthal and Claudia Tomina both shared signs of the rollout.

Announcing Project ProtoStar: Making Publicly Funded Science AI-Ready

AI summary Hugging Face has unveiled Project ProtoStar, which brings together universities, the Astera Institute and the ORCA community group to release publicly funded datasets, models and code in formats suited to AI. Founding academic members include Carnegie Mellon, Purdue and three other US universities working via the Open Forum for AI. The first open challenge, run by Carnegie Mellon from November 2 to 13, 2026, asks teams to forecast climate indicators for 210 U.S. cities for 2019–2026 using records up to 2018. Hugging Face says it already hosts over 17,000 public datasets in core science fields, and final challenge results are expected in early 2027.

Welcome Le Chonk: Mistral Large 4 on Hugging Face

AI summary Mistral's new Mistral Large 4, nicknamed Le Chonk, is a Mixture-of-Experts model that takes in text and images and replies in text, with about 1T parameters in total, 49B of them active, and a 1M-token context. On the Artificial Analysis Cyber Index it hit 82% on a test of reproducing and patching vulnerabilities, and it cracked 93% of 40 Cybench challenges. Its weights come with the Mistral Ecosystem Open-Weight License, which is derived from MIT and limits model-as-a-service use, while vLLM, transformers and llama.cpp support it from day one. The Artificial Analysis Intelligence index placed it fifth among open-weight models as of October 29, 2026.
