How AI is helping big tech beat Wall Street expectations

Business

Amazon, Apple, Meta, and Microsoft just posted earnings that beat Wall Street's expectations, all thanks to their big pushes into artificial intelligence.
Despite some pressure from US tariffs, these companies say AI is now a major force shaping both business and consumer tech.
As analyst Dan Ives put it, "AI's influence is only getting bigger."

Amazon saw profits jump 35%

Amazon saw profits jump 35% with help from its AI-powered cloud services (AWS), though some investors worry about future costs.
