Ten years ago it would've been inconceivable to me, but I have to admit that my default assumption is that Google cannot follow through on any of its projects.

Ten years ago it would've been inconceivable to me, but I have to admit that my default assumption is that Google cannot follow through on any of its projects. It is no longer a "live player"[1] and lumbers along purely on its draining intellectual endowment and incumbency. Network effects and increasing anti-competitive practices will keep Google at the top for years to come, but without a cultural reinvention it cannot possibly regain the prestige it once held as an institution.
