Any LLM that Google offers is not worth the risk
Having a look at https://killedbygoogle.com/, you can see tons of "cool" ideas that were once a Google product, but ended up being canceled by Google for various reasons.
As someone who's investing in large language models for the long term, I just can't trust that Google won't kill Bard or any other LLM in their line.
My gut feeling is that any product that isn't directly making money for Google, will stop at some point. It's a sad reality because I so desperately want there to be competition in this field so that ClosedAI doesn't get away with dumbing down their gpt4 without consequences.
- skilled 3y agoI don’t think you realize that Google could swallow the AI market in a single gulp if that is what they wanted to do. Do you know who invented transformers? It was Google. Do you know how Google makes money? It does so from ads in search. Are you expecting of Google to throw out hundreds of billions of dollars in revenue, for what? For you? Think again.
