The most fun fact about all the developments post-ChatGPT is that people apparently forgot that Google was doing actual AI before AI meant (only) ML and GenAI/LLMs, and they were top players at it.
Arguably main OpenAI raison d'être was to be a counterweight to that pre-2023 Google AI dominance. But I'd also argue that OpenAI lost its way.
And they forgot to pay those people so most of them left.
To be fair, they weren't increasing Ads revenue.
They literally gave away their secret sauce to OpenAI and pretended like it wasn’t a big opportunity.
