The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Just my opinion, FWIW.

Google stumbled a bit out of the gate rolling out its AI, but it has an extremely strong research team and managerial team and lots of money, and so I think they will do very well with AI/search going forward.

Those whole heartedly embracing 'AI search' should keep the AI hallucination problem (made up facts) in mind. Always independently check whatever an AI says. Perhaps "Google it" (:->
AI's that provide sources for its answers helps, I was being a bit facetious.

As for Alphabet: they are at the cutting edge of a number of areas, one is designing new drugs using AI, led by Dennis Hassibis who won the 2025 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for solving the protein structure prediction problem with AI.
