I really really really don't want evil corporation Google to dominate even more.
I prefer plailny greedy corporations over evil ones
They're all evil, so we just have to exploit the ones that offer us some value. If Google is cheaper, and has the ability to damage the others, then Google it is.
Google is shaping up to fare better than the others, but I dont think that means success. They, too, are spending more than its making, just at a less drunken rate than some competitors.
OpenAI and Anthropic aren’t less evil than Google.
They aren't great, though I do think Google is worse. And far too powerful
Google is only worse by virtue of their reach. OpenAI and Anthropic don't have the reach yet, but they absolutely will get there given the chance.
Before Google had the reach it has now, it was widely regarded as a comparitive 'good guy' and people believed in the "don't be evil". Lo and behold once they got going, "don't be evil" went away.
