Even then, Google wins.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-vbsvxt\">In addition to Gemini, Alphabet has its own proprietary AI hardware, the TPU, developed in partnership with Broadcom.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-vbsvxt\">I won&#8217;t get into the weeds technically here, but suffice it to say Alphabet&#8217;s TPU offers a hardware alternative to Nvidia&#8217;s GPU. And Anthropic is expanding its use of Alphabet&#8217;s hardware to the tune of 1 million TPUs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-vbsvxt\">So, Google even wins from Gemini&#8217;s main competitor because that competitor will be using a lot of Google&#8217;s hardware.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-vbsvxt\">Now, on to the $400 billion elephant in the room. Alphabet&#8217;s biggest edge is that while neither OpenAI nor Anthropic has turned a profit yet, it is already profitable, and its revenue for 2025 exceeded $400 billion. That&#8217;s a 15% increase over 2024. Net income was up 32% over 2024 to $132.1 billion.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-vbsvxt\">None of that was particularly surprising. Google has been growing and profitable for a long time. What did surprise people was the fact that the company is going to roughly double its capital expenditures in 2026 to $175 billion to $185 billion.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-vbsvxt\">Building data centers isn&#8217;t cheap, and neither is maintaining them. But Alphabet has way more money to spend on them than just about anyone else &#8212; certainly more than the start-ups.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-vbsvxt\">And if it can hold near its 59.6% gross margin and 32% net and operating margins, I&#8217;m not too worried about more spending. Plus, liquid cash to fuel that spending spree will not be a problem. In Q4 2025, the company grew its operating free cash flow 34% to $52.4 billion.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-vbsvxt\">Alphabet is betting big on AI and clearly aiming to dominate the industry. And it has the money, products, and reach to pull it off, by my reckoning.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-vbsvxt\">Give it a look if you want to go big on AI like Alphabet is, and come 2027, we&#8217;ll see who sits atop the AI throne.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-vbsvxt\">Before you buy stock in Alphabet, consider this:<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-vbsvxt\">The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/api.fool.com\/infotron\/infotrack\/click?apikey=35527423-a535-4519-a07f-20014582e03e&amp;impression=64102b5b-9181-4c5e-ac65-91ab81d48fcf&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.fool.com%2Fmms%2Fmark%2Fe-sa-bbn-dyn-headline%3Faid%3D8867%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=db1de3d3-f9d4-4401-98f6-071d11f49206\" 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> for investors to buy now\u2026 and Alphabet wasn\u2019t one of them.
