No it's not obvious at all Google is winning AI on every front. There is few stuff Google is systemically behind: 1) UX 2) product and use case innovation

I just open Google Gemini Android app and asked to generate a JS script with Gemini 2 Flash and did the same with ChatGPT.

Gemini did not highlighted with colors the code. ChatGPT did highlighted with colors the code.

Colors in code are extremely useful to grok the code and have a nice DX.

I'm sure if I dig into Gemini's product I'll find dozens of UX/DX ways in which ChatGPT is better.

Google is still playing catch-up with LLM products. ChatGPT is still the one making the announcements and then Gemini doing the same UX/use case enhancements weeks/months later.

This is very simply a bunch of minor stuff Googlites feel like they're above implementing. They would rather let you implement that and you both get a cut.

Not like Apple’s quality is any better nowadays but Google’s unwillingness to finish their design work and provide a functional product is one of the many reasons I avoid their products like the plague.

Allowing and encouraging API use makes it easy for big corporations to clone their services though, making compatible systems and I wouldn't be surprised if Apple was datamining Maps when they made their Maps.
