In terms of market cap OpenAI (500B valuation) is 5x smaller than Google.

Feel free to not leave this out, it's a pet peeve of mine. Thank you for the moment of catharsis.
Market cap doesn't really feel like a good metric of anything other than what it would take to buy a company out. DuPont has a market cap of 30ish billion and 3M around 80B, and both are both larger and frankly more important than probably even Google.
Leaving aside the pendatic "you can't be a multiple smaller than another object", 1/5 the valuation of the 5th most valuable company in the world is probably big enough to qualify you as a big company
