>It's the other way around (but the result would be the same): Alphabet has no need to make a 100x exit for the investors, and so can offer the service at cost + %markup, while Anthropic and OpenAI are VC funded, meaning that they need to show 10x - 100x exit for the investors.

If this was true, Alphabet wouldn't currently be charging more for a worse product than OpenAI and Anthropic.
