It sounds more like Counter-Positioning (details, e.g. [1]) by OpenAI/Microsoft. Google cannot compete or it would attack its own main income stream and risk losing income very fast. But if they wait, then people learn to work with Microsoft/OpenAI which would hurt them in the long run. Counter-Positioning creates an impossible situation which brought many giants down including Blockbuster.

- mrtksn 4y agoIt would suck for Google to make $20B from AI Chat instead of making $160B in Search, it wouldn't suck for Microsoft to make $20B from AI Chat instead $2B in Search. If the AI assistants live to the promise, Google is screwed even if they make the best and most popular one.
- ryloric 4y agoYeah. It won't change your logic but they made around $12B I think. Even if they don't make a cent from AI Chat, it's still worth burning money on if nothing but to dethrone google as the default choice from the public's mind.
