These aren't startups trying to prove "AI Purity" for more funding. These are money printers that are optimizing how to print more money. And Facebook and Google are competing against each other for online advertising dollars (yes, the pie is also growing). Their revenues are up 60% and 40% over the past 2 years, so I doubt their AI plays are just about proving some purity game.
