I think it's quite unlikely that they will kill off GCP entirely. It's too established, and it is still growing at a rate of around 30-40% year-on-year [1].
What seems more likely is that they shut down an increasing number of individual sub-products, in the way that they are shuttering IoT Core [2]. If they do, then I'm not convinced that will be a bad thing -- a slimmed down, profitable, platform with a well-supported set of core services feels like a safe long-term partner.
