The question to about the obvious quality drop for Google is, Is this intentional? Perhaps some cost saving or ROI measures? Or the motive always was to just train their AI and we just helped with that?

Defunkt makes it sound like it was a choice and they were a steward ... bs. If Google had a better offer, it would have been done.

Exactly! Total BS!

There are however some things that would motivate many founders to turn down their(Google) offers.

- Biggest issue with Google Acquisitions. They want the business and not the tech. They want to rewrite the tech riding their high horse. - They often wont offer full time roles to employees of acquired companies and would keep them on contract positions pending "interview" for full time.

- s3 is cheap for storing your model data and as long as you are just reading that should be fine.

- AWS Lambda has 1 million free invocations per month in free tier.

- Post that you pay $0.60 per 1 million requests

- AWS stack is just an example, you can easily use GCP Cloud run or any other equivalent service.
