Some believe Google is internally on "code red" status:
- A large number of prominent talents are flowing to OpenAI and Anthropic, and researchers are leaving.
- Gemini 3.5 Pro continues to face delays, further exacerbating external concerns about Google's AI competitiveness.
- However, the author also judges that Google still holds significant advantages; while it may not reclaim the number one spot immediately, it still has the opportunity to elevate its products and R&D under pressure.
