> For better or worse, Chatgpt has become to AI what Google was to search, even though I think Gemini is also good or even better. Google definitely has the better model right now, but I think ChatGPT is already well on its way to becoming to AI what Google was to search. ChatGPT is a household name at this point. Any non tech person I ask or talk about AI with it's default to be assumed it's ChatGPT. "ChatGPT" has become synonymous with "AI" for the average population, much in the same way "Google it" meant to perform an internet search. So ChatGPT already has the popular brand. I think people are sleeping on Google though. They have a hardware advantage and aren't reliant on Nvidia, and have way more experience than OpenAI in building out compute and with ML, Google has been an "AI Company" since forever. Google's problem if they lose won't be because of tech or an inferior model, it will be because they absolutely suck at making products. What Google puts out always feels like a research project made public because someone inside thought it was cool enough to share. There's not a whole lot of product strategy or cohesion across the Google ecosystem.
