Google, as a company, is easily ahead even if the model isn't, for various reasons.
Their real mote is the cost efficiency and the ad business. They can (probably) justify the AI spend and stay solvent longer than the market can stay irrational.
It’s incredibly impressive to see a large company with over 30x as many employees (or 2x if you compare with GDM) than OAI step back into the AI race compared to where they were with Bard a few years ago.
Google has proved it doesn’t want to be the next IBM or Microsoft.
