From watching NVIDIA's presentations, it sure sounds like AI is growing exponentially. Plus Google needs AI to advance for Waymo to become safe and profitable. Looking at other companies in my area, all of them have plans for AI, too, even if it is trivial stuff like automating the most repetitive 5% of support inquiries. So if Google can beat AWS out of the AI waters early on, that might become very valuable in a few years.

It’s not like it takes a great engineering effort to change a price. The market leader can usually afford to be a “fast follower”. That was MS’s playbook for decades. I posted a link earlier from a podcast interview of someone who works at GCP. She said that only a few small internal projects at Google run on GCP.
