idk google is so flaky, one must not forget that they had the llm concept first and couldnt really materialize it into anything commercial until chat gpt came around. Google often could dominate a market, yet they kill the product/tech instead of keeping a small team to maintain it.

I think the winner will be between xai or meta, im leaning more with xai since elon seems to always have 100% conviction even with seemingly bad ideas and he is way more technical than sam & zuck

Wasn't the "fuzzy search" that ignored keywords run by some sort of LLM? I.e. "lady gaga age" would return documents with "lady gaga old" etc.

That was embeddings AFAIK, so yeah, similar technology to LLMs.

You honestly think talent is going to xAI? Why do neither of these companies have a SoTA model?
