Don't do this please.

This is also because in Google you tend to get more easily promoted once you launch a new product, than when you do maintenance.

So the most logical course at this stage, based on typical politics at Google, would be to shutdown Bard, and launch a new product instead (like what has happened with all the messengers / social network apps)

Which is, of course, complete bullshit as well.

This answer perfectly illustrates why the chat gpt verbiage irritates me so much.

It's basically rephrasing the oft-repeated complaint that Google kills of projects, (in an MBA style English).

But how does that have anything to do with Bard AI being crap?

People are seriously impressed by this app?

Makes sense to me. Google clearly has a culture/reputation where projects are routinely killed off because they aren't deemed "successful" by some arbitrary metric. This fosters a "failure/success" mentality among employees, which influences what types of projects they take (obvious, immediately profitable) and how long it takes to develop them (as quick as possible). While they have a lot of smart people working there, I think big G has some organisational problems which prevents them from completing large scale experimental projects like this.
