- ▶ 41:44 Matthias Wagner Google search is also a big source of users, right?
Anthropic, Glean & OpenRouter: How AI Moats Are Built with Deedy Das of Menlo Ventures

- ▶ 3:45 unnamed speaker I don't know if there's a version of this at Google.
- ▶ 27:33 Malte Ubl Like, so I think that's, that's very much in the, in the, in like the soft case where like you give it a tool for LinkedIn, you give it a more generic tool for Google, give it a bit of an objective and like dequalify, like how, what do…
- ▶ 36:11 Malte Ubl I mean, I came directly from Google and I think I had some insights there of what was happening and, but like 2 times in the scene

- ▶ 27:21 Jono Whitaker Yeah, and, um, it's also, like, this, this task is small enough that you could almost do this, I think you could give this to an agent today, and it could quite confidently build you a, a smell search engine, except that there's pieces…
- ▶ 27:21 Jono Whitaker Yeah, and, um, it's also, like, this, this task is small enough that you could almost do this, I think you could give this to an agent today, and it could quite confidently build you a, a smell search engine, except that there's pieces… 2 times in the scene

- ▶ 22:35 Nathan Lambert I think, I don't know if Sam Allen was talking about it, but there's this retro paper from deep mind and other architectures that people have been pulling in the discussion again, which is like, you have a very small model with a very big…
- ▶ 24:26 Nathan Lambert I'm dealing with rumors, but I, I think they'll all do end up doing their own index and it should, it's one of those things that's like Google should have an advantage again, but who knows if they do.

- ▶ 38:49 Shawn Wang I also like how you slowly equated yourself to Google there. 4 times in the scene
- ▶ 42:14 Varun Mohan Uh, but I think in the future, maybe we'll, obviously we use things like Google analytics and all this other stuff, but
- ▶ 49:55 Alessio Fanelli And ended up getting through the Google like research programs through his university.
- ▶ 1:35:54 Kevin Hou We even brought command into the terminal, so you never have to Google that random bash command again.
- ▶ 1:41:52 Varun Mohan Like when you use Google, do you say like at New York Times post blah, blah, blah, and like ask it a question?
- ▶ 2:34:24 Varun Mohan It was like, Google's a great company, makes a lot of money. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 2:34:26 Varun Mohan What happens if they actually made the search index of the product something that someone else built for them?
- ▶ 3:26:07 Kevin Hou It allows you to visually iterate with the agent, so that Windsurf can take control of Chrome, just like you would, inspecting DOM elements, looking at your JS console, being able to do what a web developer would do.
- ▶ 3:50:27 Shawn Wang So, so Google bought all exit, all, we serve shareholders for 2.4 billion in cash, which means that like the, the employees got paid out. 2 times in the scene

- ▶ 1:26 unnamed speaker And maybe, yeah, you know, the, the sort of headline, you know, not to bury the lead, is that, you know, both DeepMind and OpenAI have claimed 6 times in the scene
- ▶ 2:58 Dr. Jasper Zhang Um, and so I initially thought Google was just slow due to their marketing approval, like, the process. 3 times in the scene
- ▶ 4:40 Dr. Jasper Zhang Yeah, so, uh, I have a feeling that this year, um, there, there, at least, like, an AI model can win, um, can win IMO gold medal, because, uh, last year, uh, by using, like, formal verification, formal language, uh, Google DeepMap can, uh,… 4 times in the scene
- ▶ 8:48 Dr. Jasper Zhang And so this is, uh, there are different ways to do this, like induction, um, but, uh, like Google has one method and then, uh, OpenAI, uh, AI also have another, uh, method, uh, but both kind of works.
- ▶ 24:04 unnamed speaker GDM was a bit more polished. 2 times in the scene

- ▶ 16:00 unnamed speaker Or is the model simply just using the same ranking as the SEO that Google API, Bing API are using?
