Developers Frustrated with Google's Complex AI APIs, Affecting Bottom Line

Developers are expressing frustration with Google's AI APIs, citing them as cumbersome and difficult to use. This has reportedly affected Google's bottom line, as fewer developers are utilizing their AI APIs due to the complexity involved in setting them up. Critics argue that Google devs impose their mental models on users, making the APIs over-engineered. In contrast, OpenAI's API is praised for its simplicity, requiring just one Curl request to function.
