In a landscape ubiquitous with AI, what incentives do these companies have to remain separate rather than merge into a giant conglomerate?

Replace “AI” with “printing presses”, “electricity”, “general computing”, “off-shoring”, “online marketplaces”, etc. Variants of this sentiment have been expressed throughout history, but have always been looked upon as foolish in hindsight.

There will always be pressure to merge, but there is also pressure to not do so. A single technology or business strategy will not disrupt this dynamic.
