I will say Google certainly has the better branding team. I like Gemini, Gems, and so on. “ChatGPT” is quite a clunky mess. OpenAI just feels like a faceless entity.
All things that could change but seems late in the game at this point. They certainly had the money to be more creative as they came to market.
OpenAI doesn’t need marketing because everybody knows who’s the best. Same reason that if I asked you what’s the best violin you would say Stradivari, even though you’ve never seen an ad for one.
OpenAI could call their model the “[poo emoji] 5000” for all the difference it would make.
