    Building a good search engine is expensive. Perhaps not as expensive as AI build out. Market share is currently Google (91%), Bing (4%), Yandex ( Google can and do already monetize…

    Good question. Salesforce does well because they provide the application layer to the data. The WWW in the 1990s was an explosion of data. To the casual observer, the web-browser a…

    And Facebook only makes money because it is essentially just an advertising platform. Same with Google. It's fundametally just ads. The only way OpenAI can survive is to replicate …
