People say Google should have taken more chances, and yet instead let OpenAI take the center stage and advance them in some ways.
But Google can’t take chances. Just as one example, Chrome browser’s MAU is 2.7 billion. That’s pretty much half the world. When half the world is using your service, honestly how easy is it to “break stuff and move fast”?
Even Google can’t avoid innovator’s dilemma – it’s no one’s fault, it’s just like nature’s force. This natural force always gives chance to nimble and smart startups.
