I believe they are pretty far ahead in some applied AI stuff.

They will probably be the first to have mostly automated warehouses for general goods. So a lot of robotics and computer vision. Not as flashy as the new wave of generative models, but getting the robotics and models reliable enough for production will be valuable.

Yeah that's totally true, I completely forgot about all the robotics and I think it was the Kiva acquisition right - I was thinking too narrowly and only focused on stuff that I've found as easily usable as the GPT series of models
