Google hasn’t blown OpenAI out of the water because they don’t want to. They’re an ad company and they can’t move away from that.

I think you aren't aware of how much Google sucks at even simple software.

They really do a surprisingly bad job at things.

I wish they could compete with apple on quality, but it's just not there.

They value engineering too much and design too little. It results in not only shittily-designed products, but also shittily-engineered ones too because they over-engineer everything.

Yeah but LLMs eat into the ad model as I see it. Less visiting ad links when the bot spits out your answer for you

Put ad links into the bot. Simple really.
