Maybe not Google, but Alphabet has a lot of far looking investments. I would argue even more varied and extreme than Elon Musk. They have Waymo for self driving, Verily for health and biotech, remote connectivity with Loon, and many more. And let's not forget of X itself which is even more experimental and out there. They also invest heavily in all sorts of research, such as multiple fusion projects, and competitions such as their 1m$ moon prize. Even within Google itself, Deepmind is doing all sorts of great research. They have Duplex, Stadia, Soli, etc. If anything, I think the issue is that they have too many things going on.
