Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]  
Income Taxes Income TaxesThe income tax provision of $637 million and $1.5 billion for the second quarter and first six months of 2023, respectively, on pretax losses of $5.3 billion and $1.7 billion, respectively, resulted in effective income tax rates of (11.9)% and (86.8)%, respectively. The second quarter 2023 effective tax rate includes the impact of a charge for the acquisition of Prometheus for which no tax benefit was recognized, which unfavorably affected the tax rate by 25.1 percentage points, as well as the favorable impact of net unrealized losses from investments in equity securities, which were taxed at the U.S. tax rate. The effective income tax rate for the first six months of 2023 includes a 101.9 percentage point combined unfavorable impact of charges for the acquisitions of Prometheus and Imago for which no tax benefits were recognized, as well as higher foreign taxes, the impact of the R&D capitalization provision of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA) on the Company’s U.S. global intangible low-taxed income inclusion, and net unrealized gains from investments in equity securities, which were taxed at the U.S. tax rate, partially offset by higher foreign tax credits. The effective income tax rates of 12.0% for the second quarter of 2022 and 11.7% for the first six months of 2022 reflect the favorable impact of net unrealized losses from investments in equity securities, which were taxed at the U.S. tax rate.The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is currently conducting examinations of the Company’s tax returns for the years 2017 and 2018, including the one-time transition tax enacted under the TCJA. If the IRS disagrees with the Company’s transition tax position, it may result in a significant tax liability.
