So basically, you're of the belief whatever OpenAI has done it's some kind of magic which Google cannot / has not figured out?
Google’s been second banana to openai for a few years now, right?
My own perception of OpenAI vs Google seems at odds with many things I read. I don't really see Google as being behind at all.1. Google pretty much invented the technology (https://arxiv.org/abs/1706.03762)2. In order to create the models one needs lots of compute and access to a lot of text. Google scores higher than OpenAI on both counts.3. New models are released on a weekly bas

Google has enough homegrown AI tech that they don't really need partnerships or acquisitions. Despite OpenAI getting outsized media coverage, Google still has a miles-long lead in the general area. Most of the advancements that made today's generative models possible came out of Google Research and Google Brain. Their real problem at the moment is productization and marketing.
OpenAI is toast. Google has a model advantage, hardware advantage (TPUs), and business advantage (I hear they are good at selling ads).It is all physics from here.
Google and their AI won't have any issues, but their competitors probably will.
You think Google is above stealing outputs from OpenAI?
OpenAI are smaller and more focused. Google don’t have good vision and anything new they do has to be checked against their existing products (how will this impact search, advertising, Google Assistant). OpenAI don’t have the same baggage, and they don’t have the same obligation to shareholders since they’re not a public company.
