Reply to comment by Professional-Bee-Bee in [D] Microsoft ChatGPT investment isn't about Bing but about Cortana by fintechSGNYC

microsoft te already beating google. Their income streams are more diversified. It has a huge stable client base (and has had so for 30 years)

Msft won't beat google at search. But then that's googles only "one trick pony." Google isn't beating Microsoft in business hardware, business software. Os etc etc etc!

If Google search gets displaced tomorrow the company loses all it's interest. If big gets replaced Microsoft will keep selling windows, SQL server, office etc etc etc.
