Google Deepmind is still publishing tons of non-LLM research. The difference is that these directions are being incorporated as Gcloud products faster.

I am not sure about FAIR, but they have been chatbot/LLM/ASR focusd from before this change.

OpenAI has definitely pivoted towards product. ! Most of that pivot is through new growth while still maintaining existing research products, but I wont deny there is a new level of product focus.
