It’s funny, Google has been shit for so long that my first thought reading this comment was “most innovative??”

Then I remembered the time where Google was basically on top of the tech world. If not strictly innovative, they were leaders in mass adoption of now ubiquitous things. Gmail, Chrome, Android, Google Drive, so much more that I can’t recall off the top of my head.

Now all they do is take those things and make them worse. I can’t think of a successful recent product, but I can think of things they’ve killed in the past three years. How bleak.

Google built the first real neural language model (Word2Vec) and the first attention/transformer language model (Attention is all you need). Then they stopped innovating.
