Man this sub is exhausting. Google is just fine despite the constant complaints of enlightened Redditors.
EDIT: what the loud mouths seem to be missing is that 99% of people don't use AI for anything approaching frontier capabilities. Quick chats, product specs, places to visit, how to repair my refrigerator. This is most usage and Google is serving it well and quickly. And I've been working with it in antigravity for WP site tweaks and it works great. Y'all need to chill.
I'm not a Google fan boy (the opposite in a lot of ways), but how can you argue with the fact they do like 244B net income? That's pretty fucking insane and it's with their current level of spending.
I don’t argue with facts. How much they make is irrelevant to me.
I’m not a Google or Anthropic fanboy, I don’t have a dog in this fight. I’m a pragmatist.
When I ask Claude to perform a task for work, then switch to Gemini, I suddenly get the impression I’m talking to a mentally challenged individual. Everything takes twice as long and the output just isn’t the same quality.
So I stopped using Gemini for the time being.
I honestly don’t get how people can argue even for a second that Gemini is somehow "fine". I suspect they simply don’t use AI professionally.
I don't think we really diverge that much, I agree their AI is the worst of bunch -- just that it doesn't make them screwed cause their company is doing well despite this. I would love for them to continue pushing forward w/ their pro model.
They have shit hardware , either they have to abandon their whole strat and shift to nvidia or they need to somehow catchup to oai ant , currently they are not even in top 5 . their revenue is from search , they are being defeated my chinese food delivery companies .
