Well, just Google did one other important thing.
I mean, in addition to Sergey, there was putting Demis Hassabis in charge of all of AI.
Because before, I think he was just in charge of Google DeepMind.
It was sort of a subset.
And then they put him in charge of the overall.
And I think that made a huge difference as well.
Let me ask you a question.
Do you think that OpenAI's sort of more conservative risk posture, do you think it's a function of the fact that whether by luck or design, they decided that the consumer market was sort of their core market?
Whereas you look at something like Anthropic, right?
And they've carved out enterprise.
But if you're a consumer product, there's so many more things you have to address.
And you're going to be attacked at so many more different ways.
It was more than that.
Remember last summer, there was the court case where the judge said that they were guilty of having the monopoly, and then he was going to rule on what the remedies were going to be.
And I think that was in, what was it, September?
And the judge said that during the summer and then whenever it was that he ruled on the remedy, that they were existentially threatened in their search business and so everything had changed.
And so the company didn't get broken up.
Remember, they were thinking about whether to spin out
Chrome, YouTube, yeah, all these kinds of movies.
Well, I think maybe a good place to start is with the reaction to it.
