OpenAI is going for the consumer-grade AI market, as opposed to a company like Anthropic making a specialized developer tool. Google can inject their AI tool in front of everybody in the world, and already have with Google AI search. All of these models are just going to reach parity eventually, but Google is burning cash compared to OpenAI burning debt. It seems like for consumer-grade purposes, AI use will just be free sooner or later (DeepSeek is free, Google AI search is free, students can get Gemini Pro for free for a year already). So all I'm seeing that OpenAI has is Sora, which seems like a business loser though I don't really understand it, and also ChatGPT seems to own the market of people roleplaying with chat bots as companions (which doesn't really seem like a multi-trillion dollar business but I could be wrong).
