I couldn't disagree more. The entirety of the internet runs on AWS. The rest is an inconsequential rounding error.
> Google has more machine learning relevant data
Subjective. Relevant to what?
______________
> It has a strong brand image as "THE company for AI "
AI is so early there's isn't a recognized brand yet. Maybe to the HN crowd, but that's astronomically small in the grand scheme of things.
______________
> It has (at this point in time at least) better machine learning hardware. This will change in the near future, but Google is far more likely to take a competitor in this area seriously and acquire them.
Competing on commodities? Doesn't seem likely.
______________
> Google has not one, but two (Deep mind and brain) world class research labs.
Again. Doesn't seem like much of an upper hand.
______________
> Google's ML APIs are objectively better.
AWS doesn't need better APIs or Developer UX. That's not what this is about.

None of the top 5 Alexa websites [1] (Google, YouTube, Facebook, Baidu and Wikipedia) run on AWS as far as I know. I'm not sure what rounding mode you're using.

- deepnotderp 10y agoHa. DL hardware != a commodity Pretty sure having two of the premier DL labs is an upper hand in deep learning... Well then what on earth does Amazon offer that's different from Google?
