I wonder did Google see a bit further ahead than MS?

By keeping the AI locked down and secret, out of public reach and accessible only via "products", Google may have actually been smarter, it gives Google a lot of advantages by drip feeding us only enough to keep us using their products and it hides some of the weirdness from us, like the LLM turning into a stalker for 20 minutes.

Obviously MS+OpenAI has maybe taken the "dumb" but effective in the short term path here and just given us raw access to the system without thinking very deeply through the consequences. Maybe they can polish it up in time and make us all become addicted to the product as it stands, let's see.
