Google's large model Gemini's application in consumer-grade products has actually formed a pretty good self-reinforcing mechanism. User behaviors on platforms like Gmail, Google Search, YouTube, and others continuously generate data. This data, in turn, trains and optimizes Gemini's capabilities, and the updated model is then integrated back into these To C products, improving user experience and increasing usage frequency — this is a typical flywheel effect.
From actual results, this logic indeed has a closed-loop feel. With a large user base and diverse usage scenarios, the quality and diversity of data are guaranteed. Improvements in Gemini are directly reflected in the features users interact with daily — more accurate search, smarter email assistants, more relevant recommendations. As it becomes more useful, user stickiness increases, and data feedback becomes even more sufficient. For large model vendors, such ecosystem-level applications are the most imaginative.

Google's closed-loop system is indeed powerful. The more data it has, the stronger the model becomes. Once it gets stronger, users become even more dependent. This is the ecological moat.

This is ecological monopoly, Google has a free pass
---
The flywheel effect sounds nice, but in reality, it's data locking, you can't escape
---
It's truly impressive. Gmail's data set trains the model every day, and users still have to keep using it
---
Hmm, thinking this way, why haven't major domestic companies come up with this kind of approach?
---
Having a large user base isn't enough; data quality matters. Google is indeed strong in this aspect
---
The more you use it, the stickier it gets. Isn't that a huge profit?
---
I just want to know, when will domestic large models form this kind of closed loop?
---
It's great, but if this continues, isn't all user data owned by Google?
---
The phrase "ecological-level application" hits the point; that's the real moat
---
So, in the end, large models still rely on product accumulation; just tuning parameters isn't enough

Google's closed-loop system is indeed very slick; once the data flywheel starts turning, it can't be stopped.
Speaking of which, us users who get exploited every day are helping them train their models— is the free ride worth it?
Search results are more accurate, but recommendations are increasingly understanding me— should I be happy or worried...
That's why big tech monopolies dominate; small players simply can't keep up.
If Gemini can really come up with some creativity this time, it would be much better than those who just keep stacking parameters.
Working for Google every day, I'm exhausted.
