first: the innovators dilemma - AI-based queries are much more expensive than traditional search index queries + no comparable level of monetization, so it would cannibalize googles revenue massively and wall street calling the doomsday that mit outright kill the behemoth
second: there seems to be no capable product management or at least not in charge, so these engineers are a massive waste of horsepower and should do something meaningful for the world instead of tuning advertising profits
third: all these beliefs might turn out like recently the fear of the russian military - only existing on paper. maybe most of these rockstar engineers are long gone elsewhere and nobody notices because huge revenue streams are masquerading it?
