Given the assumption that Google has Google's own interests at heart, the question isn't 'why doesn't Google release models that allow other companies to compete with them' but 'what is the reasoning behind the models they release' and that reasoning is 'for research and for people to use personally on their own hardware'.

We should be asking why Meta released the large Llama models and why the Chinese are releasing large models. I can't figure out a reason for it except prestige.
