Picture from Google doesn't have the same colors in Illustrator

Hi guys, so I noticed my picture downloaded from google looked quite different when imported into Illustrator. Left image original, right image imported. Any idea, where could be the problem? It is probably something really basic, but I can't find the answer to the probleme anywhere, so I am asking. Thanks!

Illustrator usually brings in items as CMYK not RGB. Check to see which is being used when opening in Illustrator.

Like Kat mentioned, make sure you place them in an RGB document.

Oh it is really that simple. I guess there is still a lot to learn for me in Illustrator. Thank you!
