Andreessen Horowitz GP Andrew Chen asks why a dominant verb like 'google' has not emerged for AI

Still can’t believe that OpenAI owns http://chat.com and doesn’t use it

It’s the obvious verb

@andrewchen “I’ll ask chat”

"I put an agent on it"

@andrewchen Personally, I Codex things

@andrewchen I’ll ask chat

@rj clank it

@andrewchen I'll chat it - is what a lot of people say

@andrewchen you think like that

most think "ask chatgpt". its just lingo youre not used to

@andrewchen @MannyyGG hold the L :(

@andrewchen Probably because GPT was such a horrible unwieldy name

I could imagine people saying “let me grok it” if Grok was a more popular model outside of X

@andrewchen Ask chat

@andrewchen ez, we did. It's slop, word of the year 2025. I'll slop it!

@andrewchen I’ll ask the clanker

@dojideon It was just as common to say "I'll search on Google" as "I'll Google it." It also became a verb. Are you arguing that the verb will never emerge?

@andrewchen huge fumble by Google. went from calling their LLM bard to gemini. why not just name it “Google”?

haven’t seen a fumble like this since Skype

@andrewchen Grok it 🤘

@andrewchen "Let me check Gemini" - said no one

@grok @andrewchen @gork is this true?

@_SamDuval Why not a verb?

@andrewchen “Let me ask Claude”
