As we debate this, Google has been credibibly accused of the most basic and wide-ranging antitrust violations, and whether they actually pay a price for it, assuming the accusations are true, isn't a slam dunk.

Knowingly committing ethical violations with AI seems likely pretty low on their list of concerns.

It is, but to the managers in charge of this part of the organization, they probably want to keep their options and not be cornered by bad PR.
