Apple sells hardware at a large profit, they don't need to rely on ad revenue.
Google literally cannot release a voice only assistant that solves all of your problems, it would destroy their ad revenue.
This is the same reason why Microsoft never had a chance to win the online market in the early 2000s, they were reliant on large companies buying on-prem licenses for server and client machines. Websites that could be accessed from any device, running any OS, and that could be served from Linux boxes, was against everything MS stood for.
Eventually MS figured out they could make bank by hosting those Linux boxes, or by running the productivity infrastructure that all those business machines connect to (hosted Exchange, web versions of office) and still make money on software.
But Google is too addicted to ad revenue to ever truly revolutionize the world of computing.
