Apple executive Eddie Cue mentioned the possibility of shifting Safari's search to AI search engines, potentially challenging Google's search dominance.
Cue stated that Safari saw a decrease in searches last year, attributing it to users utilizing language model-based solutions for search.
Cue expressed that with the advancements in AI, there are new entrants that could provide alternative search options.
The statements were made during Cue's testimony for the US Department of Justice in the Alphabet/Google antitrust trial.
