You're betting against a 1,4 T behemoth on "code red" that invented Tensor flow, has enough compute for anything with custom hardware versus a company that "got 10 billion in azure compute credits".

OpenAI may have a headstart. But it's still early for transformers.

I'd guess that the brain drain that went into the media is a bit exaggerated for a company with 190 k. Employees.

Every release of chatbots in the past of a multinational ( meta, Microsoft, alphabet) got ridiculed because it hallucinated.

For some reason, the media ignored it more with OpenAI.

Side-Notes: Apple is doing well and Cook isn't Jobs either. Ballmer still helped prepare everything for the next in line ( cloud, office for Mac, ... ). He was not popular and he made expensive mistakes ( Nokia). But Azure was released in 2008 during his leadership too.
