You bring up fumbles, but they still have the more products with more than a billion users than any company in the world.

This is what Google has always cared about. Bring application to the billions of users.

People are forgetting Google is the most profitable AI company in the world right now. All of their products use ML and AI.

So who is losing?

The goal of Gemini isn't to build a chatbot like ChatGPT despite Google having Bard.

The goal for Gemini is to integrate it into those 10 products they have with a billion users.




This is like critiquing Disney for putting out garbage and then defending them because dummies keep giving them money regardless of quality. Having standards and expectations of greatness is a good thing and the last thing you want is for mediocrity to become acceptable in society.

The people who use their products, which are worse than they’ve been in decades? The people who make the content Google now displays without attribution on search results?


Sure, but I think Google's commanding marketshare is more at risk than it has been in a long time due to their fumbles in the AI space.


> All of their products use ML and AI.

Is that supposed to be a vote of confidence for the current state of Google search?
