Big Tech’s AI monopoly limits competition and exacerbates inequality, concentrating power among a few firms (Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta) that control essential resources and infrastructure. This creates high entry barriers for startups and public institutions, leading to reduced innovation and a digital divide. The study explores market concentration, structural barriers, and the impact on emerging economies. It highlights the need for regulatory measures to promote fairness, autonomy, and inclusive innovation while addressing global disparities in AI development and access.
