Google has been concerned about Apple's potential expansion into internet search and has been working on strategies to prevent it. Internal documents reveal Google's plans to contain Apple's search ambitions and the company's $18 billion payment to Apple for being the default search engine in 2021. Google is introducing new guidelines for AI-powered apps on the Play Store, requiring them to have a built-in option for users to flag offensive AI-generated content. Android apps will also need to moderate AI content to stay in the Play Store. Additionally, Google's AI-powered search experience will continue to show ads, including sponsored results.
