On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around the stock remained in ‘bearish’ territory amid ‘low’ message volume levels.&nbsp;According to the report,&nbsp;insiders stated that the decision stems from concerns that some startup founders resist funding from strategic backers, fearing potential competitive conflicts. As major AI firms continue to expand into overlapping domains, distancing themselves from Google could reduce perceived risks and broaden their fundraising appeal.In 2017, Google launched Gradient Ventures, a program designed to support early-stage startups innovating in the field of artificial intelligence. The plan was to support young companies by providing not just funding, but also hands-on technical guidance, access to in-house AI experts, and educational resources, such as boot camps.&nbsp;Through this model, Google had said it would take minority equity positions in the businesses it supports.The report stated that under the new setup, Gradient will retain its existing portfolio, which includes approximately 250 startups, such as AI infrastructure firm Lambda and health wearable company Oura. It will also continue to manage prior funds, with Google remaining a limited partner.&nbsp;Alphabet stock has gained over 29% year-to-date and 48% in the last 12 months.&nbsp;Also See:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/palantir-stock-tumbles-as-internal-army-memo-exposes-risks-in-its-battle-comms-system/chCuFVaR3Q0">Palantir Stock Tumbles As Internal Army Memo Exposes Risks In Its Battlefield Communication System: Report</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

(GOOGL) (GOOG) for the use of the latter’s Gemini large-language model (LLM) to improve its ad business.A report from The Information, citing people with knowledge of the conversations, stated that the talks between the two artificial intelligence (AI) stalwarts are in the early stages and may not result in an agreement,&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.reuters.com/business/meta-talks-use-googles-gemini-improve-ad-targeting-information-reports-2025-09-25/">according</a> to Reuters.Riding on the popularity of the chatbots and AI technology, Meta and Alphabet stocks are up 28.2% and 30.3%, respectively, this year. On Stocktwits, retail sentiment toward Meta stock remained ‘bullish’ (59/100) by late Thursday, while the message volume trickled down to ‘normal’ levels.&nbsp;Alphabet’s recent stellar gains have rendered retail traders cautious, with sentiment toward its Class A stock remaining ‘bearish’ (35/100) and message volume at ‘low’ levels.&nbsp;Meta employees have reportedly proposed using Google’s Gemini and open-source Gemma models on the social-media giant’s ad data to improve its ad targeting capabilities, the Information report said.&nbsp;Meta, which owns a family of apps, including its flagship Facebook app, Instagram, and WhatsApp, derived 98% ($46.56 billion) of its revenue from advertising in the second quarter that ended in June. Meanwhile, Alphabet’s Google advertising business generated $64.6 billion, or 76% of the total revenue, during the same period.This rumored move by the Mark Zuckerberg-led company is seen as an acknowledgement of the scaling issues the company has had with its AI technology.&nbsp;Speaking at the Goldman Sachs Communacopia conference held earlier this month, Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurien said, “Gemini leads in many dimensions: performance, cost, quality, factuality, the ability to do very sophisticated kinds of reasoning.” He said that 9 million developers use the generative AI model to build applications, according to a transcript made available by Koyfin.CEO Sundar Pichai said on the earnings call held in late July that the Gemini app had more than 450 million monthly active users, with daily requests growing 50% sequentially in the second quarter.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.Read Next:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/trump-interest-rates-too-high-even-as-q2-gdp-growth-exceeds-expectations/chDVTXAR3I3">Trump Says Interest Rates ‘Too High’ Even As Q2 GDP Growth Exceeds Expectations: ‘The Good News Is….’</a>

Tesla’s latest Full Self-Driving (FSD) software has again shown troubling lapses, failing to stop for a flashing school bus sign, ignoring traffic signals, and making erratic lane changes during a 90-minute drive in Los Angeles.The test was documented by&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/alanohnsman/2025/09/23/teslas-full-self-driving-software-is-a-mess-should-it-be-legal/">Forbes</a>, which used a 2024 Model Y with Tesla’s latest Hardware 4 and FSD version 13.2.9. The vehicle was provided by the Dawn Project, a group that has&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://dawnproject.com/the-dawn-project-and-tesla-takedowns-live-safety-tests-of-tesla-full-self-driving-in-austin/">long criticized Tesla’s driver-assist system</a>.&nbsp;Dan O’Dowd, who leads the project, said in a&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://x.com/RealDanODowd/status/1970609384012320901">post on X&nbsp;</a>that the car made “7 safety critical errors,” including attempting to drive the wrong way down a one-way street and “illegally blowing past a stopped school bus.”The school bus issue is not&nbsp;a new one. Two years ago, the Dawn Project ran a similar test and found the car failed to stop for flashing signs indicating children might be crossing. Forbes said the problem remains unfixed, raising questions about Tesla’s claims of progress on safety.Tesla markets FSD as “Full Self-Driving (Supervised)” and sells it as an $8,000 add-on, with an optional $99&nbsp;monthly subscription. Despite its name, the system is categorized as Level 2 partial automation, requiring a fully attentive driver at all times. Critics argue that branding and promotion exaggerate its capabilities.The lapses come as regulatory pressure mounts. The U.S. auto regulator has launched a probe into Tesla’s handling of crash reports involving Autopilot and Full Self-Driving. The agency stated that automakers are responsible for certifying their own systems as safe, but noted that it will intervene if those technologies are found to endanger drivers.Tesla’s driver-assist technology also faces challenges in court. A jury in Florida last month ordered the company to pay $243 million over a 2019 crash involving Autopilot, while lawsuits in California were recently settled. California’s DMV is separately seeking to bar the company from using names like “Autopilot” and “Full Self-Driving” on&nbsp;the grounds that they may mislead consumers.Meanwhile, Tesla is piloting a robotaxi service in Austin with FSD technology. Unlike fully autonomous rivals such as Alphabet’s Waymo, Tesla’s trial includes a safety driver behind the wheel. Reports of crashes during the pilot have added to questions about whether the system is ready for broader rollout.Despite growing scrutiny, CEO Elon Musk continues to promote FSD as central to Tesla’s future. His compensation package is tied to ambitious goals, including 1 million Tesla robotaxis on the road and 10 million active FSD users over the next decade.On Stocktwits, retail sentiment for Tesla was ‘neutral’ amid ‘high’ message volume.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/TSLA">Tesla’s stock</a> has risen 5.5% so far in 2025.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Alphabet Inc.’s (GOOG) (GOOGL) Google will reportedly meet the European Union’s deadline for its proposed changes to the company’s advertising technology business.According to a&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-09-19/google-readies-eu-offer-after-3-billion-fine-skips-full-split">report</a> by Bloomberg citing people familiar with the matter, Google’s changes will not include the scope of modifications sought by the EU. This comes after the EU imposed a $3.5 billion fine on the search and advertising giant.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/GOOGL">Alphabet’s shares</a> were up 0.37% in Friday’s pre-market trade. Retail sentiment on Stocktwits around the company was in the ‘neutral’ territory.Google’s offer will avoid the complete sale of its Ad Manager division, which comprises the AdX exchange and DoubleClick for Publishers. The company is expected to make the offer in November, but the filing deadline could slip, according to the report.Earlier this month, the EU’s antitrust chief, Teresa Ribera,&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/google-to-be-hit-with-eu-antitrust-fine-over-adtech-practices-on-friday-report/chwIik5RdqB">said</a> Google abused its dominant position in advertising technology. “This behaviour is illegal under EU antitrust rules. When markets fail, public institutions must act to prevent dominant players from abusing their power. True freedom means a level playing field, where everyone competes on equal terms and citizens have a genuine right to choose,” Ribera said.Lee-Anne Mulholland, Google’s vice president for regulatory affairs, said the company would appeal the fine, saying that the fine is unjustified and the changes sought by the EU would “hurt thousands of European businesses by making it harder for them to make money.”Google had previously considered selling parts of its adtech business to resolve antitrust concerns.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/GOOGL">GOOGL stock</a> is up 33% year-to-date and 58% over the past 12 months.Also See:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/pattern-ipo-300-million-2-5-billion-valuation/chD3TM3R3Rv">Pattern IPO To Debut On Nasdaq Today: E-Commerce Accelerator Raises $300 Million At $2.5 Billion Valuation</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.
