  The Strategic Move That Could Save Google's AI Future (And Why They Probably Won't Make It) I've been building with AI long enough to remember when Google felt untouchable. Back in the day, if you were an engineer, Google was the mountaintop. They had the papers. They had the researchers. They had the TPUs. Every breakthrough worth caring about seemed to flow out of Mountain View. Then something shifted. I started noticing it around 2022. Small teams — like, embarrassingly small teams — were shipping things that Google couldn't. A handful of people were building coding agents, AI-native IDEs, full-stack generation tools that developers actually wanted to use. Meanwhile, Google would announce something incredible at I/O, and six months later it would be deprecating it or burying it inside some product nobody asked for. I felt it personally. I'd build on a Google API, get invested, write code around it, and then watch it get sunset with a blog post and thirty days' notice. I'd migrate. Rebuild. Curse under my breath. Repeat. And the whole time I kept asking myself the same question. Why does a company with this much firepower keep fumbling the ball? Today on X, @pmddomingos dropped a take that stopped me cold. He said Google should move to a pharma and movie studio model. Distribution muscle in-house. Creativity outsourced to smaller, nimbler outfits. The more I sat with it, the more it made sense. Here's what pharma companies understand. They don't try to discover every drug themselves. They buy or partner with biotech startups that do the messy, creative, high-risk research. Then they handle the clinical trials, the regulatory maze, the distribution. They are the last mile. The scale. The muscle. Movie studios work the same way. They don't develop every script in-house. Production companies, independent creators, writers — they handle the creative chaos. The studio handles financing, marketing, and getting butts into seats or onto streaming platforms. Now look at Google. Google has arguably the most powerful distribution infrastructure in human history. Search. YouTube. Android. Gmail. Chrome. Billions of users. A cloud platform with global reach. They even quietly entered the movie and TV business through 100 Zeros, operating at arm's length with a tiny dedicated staff — not unlike Nike's Waffle Iron Entertainment setup. Distribution is not Google's problem. It never was. Google's problem is the other thing. The creative part. The part where someone says what if we built this and then actually builds it without seventeen layers of review, a committee, and a strategy doc nobody reads. I've watched internal Google teams iterate at the speed of government while a three-person startup ships a product that hits a million users in a month. The startup has no compute advantage. No brand moat. But it has velocity and creative hunger. It has a developer workspace where ideas turn into deployed apps in hours, not quarters. That's the thing the pharma and studio models get right. They don't confuse distribution capability with creative capability. They know those are different muscles. They know the people who are great at one are usually terrible at the other. And here's what's wild — there's a prediction floating around that by 2026, studios will split into two clear camps. Those still waiting for permission and greenlights. And those building systems that monetize audience attention every single day. The AI world is heading the same direction. The companies that win won't be the ones with the most researchers behind closed doors. They'll be the ones who figure out how to be the platform, the distribution layer, the last mile — while letting a thousand small, hungry teams handle the creative chaos of building what users actually want. Google doesn't need to out-innovate OpenAI or Anthropic or the next two-person startup that blows up overnight. It needs to stop trying. It needs to become the studio. The distributor. The infrastructure that smaller players build on top of. And honestly? It's already sitting on the pieces. It just hasn't connected them. The compute is there. The developer tools are there. The user base is there. What's missing is the mindset shift — admitting that the best ideas probably aren't going to come from inside the building, and that's okay. That's not weakness. That's leverage. I think about my own stack. I use a mix of agentic coding tools, AI-powered IDEs, local LLM environments, and cloud-based dev spaces. None of them come from Google. They could. But they don't. And the reason isn't capability. It's that Google keeps trying to be the creative genius when it should be the studio that backs a hundred creative geniuses. So here's my question — if Google went full studio model tomorrow and became the distribution layer for independent AI builders, what's the first kind of product or team you'd want to see them back? Drop your answer in the comments, I read every one. And if this resonated, follow along — I write about this stuff constantly.

  I started trading and it failed. But now I understand the reality of trading better. I made a lot of wrong decisions without thinking things through. I lost my accounts again and again, doing the same thing REVENG TRADING. I was addicted to losing every day without caring. The fault is mine that's not in question. My own wrong decision got my Gmail hijacked, and I lost everything with it - Discord, TradingView, NetNine, years of work, gone in a moment. But not everything that happened was fully my own doing either. If there's one real root to all of this, it's that I trusted people too easily — I trusted almost everyone I built connections with. Now I understand how easily someone like me can be shaped and used for whatever someone else needs, in whatever way suits them. To the people I hurt along the way - I'm Sorry. I can't fix what already happened, and I can't change the past. Your already know that and Only I can give that 2 SS. I don't know what comes next for me from here. But I'm not the person from the past anymore.

  This client had a 100k email list that was making them almost nothing. The list wasn't the problem. Gmail had buried them in spam, and they didn't even know. 20+ in just the first 20 days working with us, and we focus on deliverability for all of our clients because that's one of the key foundations for email marketing.

  your spf, dkim and dmarc are all green. you still have a deliverability problem. this trips people up, so here is the plain version. authentication is not a deliverability strategy. gmail requires it. yahoo requires it. outlook rejects without it. it is the cover charge. passing it does not mean you are good. it means you are allowed in. if it shows up on an invoice as a deliverability service, you are paying someone to hold a door open.

  @saradietschy The only thing that a pass key has been useful for is when I had it saved in my iCloud and tried to add all my Gmail accounts to my new phone after turning over my old phone to the rep at the Apple Store. Cuz like how can you open the YouTube app on your old phone to verify a sign in for your new phone if you don’t have it! Uhh!!

  @sayusyn Yeah, it was a massive wake up call to me about how insecure these services are and I'm looking into reducing how dependent I am on Google services. I almost couldn't pay my rent this month because the login for their portal was linked to that Gmail account.

  it's hard to overstate how much value DEI destroyed at Google. they could have launched their useful internal chatbots earlier, but the bots were offensive and they didn't want to cannibalise their search ads cash cow. it's an evergreen story: Big Co avoids self-cannibalising, gets their lunch eaten by a startup they don't own. what Google should have done: spin out the AI division or keep it under Deepmind to avoid the brand risk of offensive bots, i.e. retain the Gmail "beta" label and wash their hands of the initially offensive parts until the models improved. however, then you still have the cost center problem: ExCo bonuses are tied to existing product performances, and while costly models are being trained, all they see is declining ad revenue, so they lobby against it. this points to an incentive failure. perhaps the root cause is silo'd OKRs?

  @kapilansh_twt To be honest, its good, except Google throttles the **** out of you, if you visit ANY google website on Edge. YouTube suddenly has random delays, takes longer to load. And same story with google search, gmail and anything Google, just to make you think your browser is slow...

  @CraigVecellio @SenRandPaul @johnpavlovitz I'm unsure of whether any federal or state statute was broken here. My argument was a moral one. How'd you feel Mr. Druig if your gmail or yahoo account was blown apart for all your enemies to see? D.A. NYC 🗽

  @mgfeller @Superhuman @browsercompany I’ve similar sites behave this way when Google login is enabled - I’d try going to Google first (Gmail or similar) and logging out there, and then log out of Grammarly, which should break the loop I believe
