One of the differences is Google isn't originally writing that text themselves, they're pointing to someone else who has written it. In a potential lawsuit Google would be able to solidly point to the domain and ownership of the actual author of the text. If (when) OpenAI ends up in court, who will they point to? If someone was slandered, the courts will find a human being responsible for it.

What about the responsibility of the person writing the prompt?

I guess it depends on the prompt. But if someone just asks “what crimes has X famous person committed?” and ChatGPT spits out some false information, the libel would be OpenAI’s fault, no?
