The output of one pioneering model has become almost indistinguishable from another, forcing companies to try to differentiate their products.

This is corpo speak for "LLMs aren't going to get much better than this, which is what research had shown months ago, but we can't let users notice so we will create more wrappers, shove it into more apps, mask the mistakes, keep changing the tone and adding floating visualizations to distract you from the fact they're still shit"

It's the same song and dance all selfish people perform. They get to cheat and steal and lie to others but nobody gets to do it to them. They are morally and ethical empty. They act based on what they can get for themselves, not what is wise for our community or its future.

The thieves can have my data if it will be bad for Google. I hope these tech CEOs eat shit.
