One-Trick Pony

This week, we break down the current state of the most important company in the history of the internet: Google.

It used its dominant position in search to be the arbiter for the web. As the web moves into an agentic AI era, we break down how Google is positioned and the impact its next evolution will have for the ecosystem it shaped and de facto ruled.

Plus: why media’s unionization craze didn’t fix bad models, why nobody can remember any ad campaigns, and the charms of the Shelter Island dump as a community convener.

RSVP to PvA Live at Cannes with Sara Fischer and Neil Vogel at the Dotdash Meredith villa.
