Google in it's heyday acquired: (a) Android (b) Google Maps (c) Youtube. It was anything but stagnating at the time.
From what I can tell, OpenAI is following a similar strategy.
- notepad0x90 1y agoHas Google made anything as impactful as Gmail and Chrome since those acquisitions? Stagnant doesn't mean unprofitable. Google videos was a thing, it died. Google had an awesome modular phone project (Ari?), it died too. I can imagine they could have done something like M-series apple chips and an actual modular phone and phone OS that was superior to Apple products.
