Microsoft? In the sense that OpenAI is "paying" them... through MS's own investment.

It's a very fuzzy question I posed. For pure customer-pays-for-AI-service it could be Microsoft. I'm kind of thinking of it as: Google's core products (search, ads, YouTube, Gmail) would not be possible with AI and they are huge cash cows.

Are there people paying for Google's weather predictions?

Only indirectly, but I wanted to point out that there are a lot of interesting research innovations that get implemented by Google and not some other company.
