I think you’re being too charitable to Google. This is the company that released Duplex, Orkut, and about 100 other not-a-products.
Google is quiet because they can’t figure out how to release something that is 1) useful, and 2) not fatal to their core business.
Google’s entire empire is built on users having to run multiple searches and click through multiple links to find anything. Any kind of summarization/knowledge system that reduces wasted user time is necessarily bad news for Google.
Google’s research here is admirable. Their lack of productization (remember, they also claim to be years ahead) is a symptom of business mistakes coming home to roost.
