I think anthropic with its enterprise strategy and google with its integration in everything have a bit of a moat.
But I switched from ChatGPT to Claude 3 months ago because my account was down for like 6 hours. I haven’t used it since. It’s too easy to switch away from chatbots on a whim. There is no moat for that.
google might have tons of integration. But if it invested too heavily into AI then it will also suffer when increased competition causes returns to fall:

But... Anthropic doesn't have a moat. It's clear at this point that SOTA models are not a moat, and Opus 4.6-level (or GLM 5.2) is sufficient.
Google, though... they own the entire vertical, from the semiconductors to the end-user software. They may have a moat.
