They haven't though. Gemini is vaporware and other models are not as good as GPT-4.

For now. As others have said, there is no technological “moat” in this business that could prevent others from catching up.

Perhaps the best way for Open AI is to become THE established AI services company. AWS is still the leader in cloud computing space, and only has Azure competing, despite the fact that other big companies are also technologically capable of building similar products.

What happened to GCP? I personally switched away because of the bad experiences.. but is that happening in scale as well. I see it barely mentioned these days.

GCP is suffering from bad sales strategy and lack of existing enterprise relationships.

Mistral Large is quite close to GPT 4 per the stats from today:

Now once OpenAI launches GPT 5 well I am sure other models won't look so good, but right now these other models are approaching GPT 4 capabilities.

I'm pretty bearish on GPT 5 being better than 4. With how neutered 4 has gotten over time, I'd be surprised if GPT 5 is able to perform better with all the same restrictions that GPT 4 has. GPT 4 is less and less willing to actually accomplish a task for you than it is to tell you how you can do it. It looks more and more like Markov chains every day.

Did you mean bearish?

Yes I did, thanks.

I find gemini advanced better than gpt4. it is my go to option now.
