Google sat on transformers, LaMDA for years before OpenAI. The engineers and researchers did their job. This was a case of complete strategic, i.e., leadership failure because they were more worried about getting sued.

If anything this shows you can have a good work life balance culture and deliver groundbreaking results but get it all fcked up by sht leaders.
