It's been a while since they stopped innovating.

Although Google, Maps, Youtube are of daily use they are monetized exclusively by advertising which is annoying and hated by many. It has been many years since Google has launched an innovative new product.

I don't think ChatGPT will gain daily traction after this hype. Anyway we could say that MSFT and AMZN have demostrated more power to innovate with different business models (not only adv) and products.

The GOOG stock has a PE (Price/earning) of 23, while Coca cola 26. So the stock market expect higher growth from CocaCola than Google. Quite surprising.

They are kind of forced to keep up or die now, not a good place to be in. It feels like everyone always just assumed they must have super advanced AI behind closed doors. Perhaps that was a wrong assumption because they never actually seem to *do* anything with it, but we will probably know that for sure very soon.
