- not particularly critical or skeptical of the space
- demonstrably have lots of money to gamble
- susceptible to promises of hyper-wealth

i'm definitely imagining Google re-whipping up their "Big Data" sales pitches in response to Gemini being borked or useless. "oh, see your problem is that you haven't modernized and empowered yourself by dumping all your databases into a (our) cloud native synergistic Data Sea, available for only $1.99/GB"
