Google doesn't need to give a shit, because so much of the internet is infested with with google ad trackers and adwords, and everybody uses Chrome, that they will continue to make billions even without AI. Facebook did the same with their pixel so they could soak up data.

Gemini will be dead in 2 years and there'll be something else, but the ad and search company will remain given that they basically own the world wide web.

Except now, so much of the WWW is filled with AI slop that it breaks the system.
