Honestly Google is likely to beat openAI and Anthropic as things are.
OpenAI and Anthropic have to buy/rent their hardware from Nvidia, while Google is making their own TPU hardware. Google's hardware costs on AI is way lower, every dollar they spend on it goes a lot farther.
And unlike the other two, they're already a profitable company. They're making record profits right now. They don't have a desperate need to figure out how to make back billions on their AI models, they can just keep offering Gemini at a comparatively cheap price and wait for anthropic and open AI to bankrupt themselves.
I really really really don't want evil corporation Google to dominate even more.
I prefer plailny greedy corporations over evil ones
OpenAI and Anthropic aren’t less evil than Google.
They aren't great, though I do think Google is worse. And far too powerful
Google is only worse by virtue of their reach. OpenAI and Anthropic don't have the reach yet, but they absolutely will get there given the chance.
Before Google had the reach it has now, it was widely regarded as a comparitive 'good guy' and people believed in the "don't be evil". Lo and behold once they got going, "don't be evil" went away.
