Seems like Google is mostly caught up.

They are as caught up as Bing is to Google Search. It does not really mean anything.

Can you show me the Google equivalent of GPT-4o?

In terms of performance GPT-4o doesn't seem like an improvement over GPT-4 (even worse in some cases afaiu)

And Google showcased the project astra thing, which seems like the equivalent.

Google has been "showcasing" since I can't remember, if only they shipped instead :'(.

Remember Duplex [1]? Which then turned out to be fake. The more recent fake Gemini demo? What an embarrassment.

How is duplex fake? It's available.

So initially the quality wasn't 100%, how is that fake? Over selling of capabilities, sure.

LLMs also aren't correct 100% of the time, far from it.
