Fair question. That's the kind of "who knows?" which might make it hard to defeat them in litigation, unless Google staff have been silly enough to write it down in easy-to-find-during-discovery emails.
But as a gut-check, even if all the people not complaining about it are getting use out of any given model, does this justify the ongoing cost of training new models?
If you could delete the ongoing training costs of new models from all the model providers, all of them look a lot healthier.
I guess I have a question about your earlier comment:
> Google is always going to be training a new model and are doing so while profitable.
While Google is profitable, or while the training of new models is profitable?
