Here’s the most egregious example of Google blowing it I’ve seen. I’ve been deploying some infra on Google cloud - turns out Bard can’t answer a single question, and half the time gives up with the “as a language model…” escape routine.
Meanwhile GPT is writing Python scripts to call the Google Cloud APIs for me and they work on the first try.
Like your entire business is supposed to be info retrieval and knowledge management and I need to use a competitor product to make sense of yours. JFC.
- J_Shelby_J 3y agoI don’t think there’s much left to be said about this saga of google. They destroyed search, let gmail stagnant, let YouTube get usurper by TikTok, and the cherry on top is completely missing a once in a species tech that was literally discovered by their employees. This is a blockbuster not buying Netflix moment for the history books x100. Google isn’t going anywhere, but the people responsible for this era are going to have really awkward moments coming to term with their legacies.
- TX81Z 3y agoDisagree with YouTube, I think it’s a rare bright spot that serves a different need than TikTok. I think it would thrive if spun out, Google holds it back. Otherwise, spot on, I just don’t think the execs care about legacy, just $$$.
