Honestly, if Veo becomes public faster than Sora, they could win the video AI race. But what am I wishfully thinking - it's Google we're talking about!

- Jensson 2y ago> But what am I wishfully thinking - it's Google we're talking about! Google the company known to launch way too many products? What other big company launches more stuff early than them? What people complain about Google is that they launch too much and then shut them down, not that they don't launch things.
- fakedang 2y agoGoogle lost first place in AI precisely because they've been walking around imaginary eggshells regarding AI's effect on the public. That led to the whole Gemini fiasco and the catch up game they've had to play with OpenAI-MSFT.
- spaceman_2020 2y agoThe cost to switch to new models is negligible. People will switch to Sora if its better instantly I’ve switched to Opus from GPT-4 for coding and it was non-trivially easy
- ndls 2y agoI think you used non-trivially wrong there, bud.
- spaceman_2020 2y agohah, I did :)
- SilverSlash 2y agoExcept your single experience doesn't mean it's generally true, bud. For instance I have not switched to Opus despite claims that it is better because I don't want to go through the effort of cancelling my ChatGPT subscription and subbing to Claude. Plus I like getting new stuff early that OpenAI occasionally gives out and the same could apply for Google's AI.
- fakedang 2y agoSorry, but lock in effects are real. End users, solo devs and startups might find it trivially easy, but enterprise clients would go through hoops before a decision is to be made. And enterprise clients would rather not go through with that, hence they'll stick to whoever came first, unless there's a massive differentiator between the two.
