imo OpenAI didn't pick a vertical and excel at it like Anthropic did (focus on productivity) it instead relied too much on being first and the default, but we are still early enough that switching costs aren't high (referencing chat history is unstable and you are better off clearing it from time to time) it wanted first to compete with Google. got Microsoft onboard, but increasingly seems like they burned them. then courted Apple but they went with Google after Jony Ive hire and weird physical product plan (not sure if a direct result). and now trying to compete with Meta on human social network (?) what they doing over there??
