From what I heard, they don't have scaling capabilities to deploy the bigger models right now which they're working on and that's the biggest issue.

I have no particular insight into this either way, but I find it pretty hard to believe that OpenAI has more scaling capability than Google.
It's not just about hardware, it's about the software infrastructure to go with it. Other than OpenAI most researchers weren't interested in "merely" scaling things up because that was/is seen as simple engineering, unworthy of the great minds who dream up new algorithms.
So I worked at Google for awhile (not on AI) and this wasn't my impression of what was going on with the AI teams there. But :shrug:, I dunno.
