Great. But school's out. It's time to build product. Let the rubber hit the road. Put up or shut up, as they say.

I'm not dumb enough to bet against Google. They appear to be losing the race, but they can easily catch up to the lead pack.

There's a secondary issue that I don't like Google, and I want them to lose the race. So that will color my commentary and slow my early adoption of their new products, but unless everyone feels the same, it shouldn't have a meaningful effect on the outcome. Although I suppose they do need to clear a higher bar than some unknown AI startup. Expectations are understandably high - as Sundar says, they basically invented this stuff... so where's the payoff?
