Before the NCAA started limiting scholarships in 1973, teams could stock up on workhorses -- Bear Bryant's Alabama teams would bring in blue-chippers by the shipload, not so his Tide could use them, so other schools couldn't. It's been done before. If Google hired the guys who made ChatGPT and put them on production support or anything, they wouldn't be scared for their existence right now. In tech, it only takes a handful of people to put you out of business in a few years, and you'd never see it coming. The corpses of once great tech companies are many: MySpace, Yahoo, Sun, etc. I would argue the tech giants aren't so much afraid of each other, but upstarts out of nowhere that makes their business obsolete.
