More like "Here's exactly how to make a car that can run for 200,000 miles on one drop of water. I'm not going to make it though, because won't someone think of the poor oil barons?"

then

"ZOMG!!!! Someone made the car and is selling it for billions???"

It's baffling that Google has sat on the tech for so long, and fully justified that another upstart is castrating them after actually using it

Google doesn't want to cannabalize its own bussiness, which is search advertising. They probably realized early on that LLM models will compete with their main profit generator, so they decided to not allocate a significant amount of capital into making it a publically available product.

They have no one to blame but themselves.
Cannibalization and adaptation is their one and only move.
