Agree they had an unlimited budget and hired true top talent. But my point still stands, none of the big companies are spinning up a group of 200 people in a new org and releasing game changing products. They can only do it by funding external groups. Facebooks whole business model was hiring expensive engineers that are good at executing and just copying any new competitors product.

  Exactly, management is still riding the gravy train and won’t risk their now obsolete business model

    You do realize Google relaeses more products than anyone, right? (In fact, too many.) But with just an AI chatbot, there really isn't much of a product in it's current state. But lets say there is this massive product that Google is hiding, I'm really struggling to understand how Google releasing it risks their "now obsolete business model." I mean, what exactly is your claim here? Google has this killer product, but they aren't releasing it and putting ads on it because... they want to let someone else do it? But they _are_ still publishing the very research that will obsolete thier business model at no charge?

So what's your point exactly? First OpenAI has 10x engineers that Google doesn't, now Google has the 10x engineers, as you acknowledged you know OpenAI used Google Brain's trsnsformer architecture, but it just isn't productising fast enough for you? You do realize OpenAI hasn't made a dime yet, right? So your so called 10x dream is just time to market? Not inovation, or releasing a real product?

I think this is true across nearly every industry. It’s easier and safer to invest in another business than to try and do it in-house, so they do. Maybe interest rates might change that approach in the future.
