Do you think it would be cool for Google to create a high quality AV product?

I don't think so, Google is more focus on internet side of gathering analysis through Artificial Intelligence and other modern techniques of technology.

Owning of Virustotal and implementation of Safe browsing may just brought minor components to the possible bigger outcomes.

In fact from the article entitled " Human Brains could be connected cloud by 2030 " where Google and Facebook are aware to implement precautionary dangers of these possible 'hypothetical' concept.
 
As James has said, Google is more on the internet data related side of things. Anti-Virus from them would be cool because almost everything they make is seriously awesome. Although, they would seriously knock all the other competition out of the market.

Exactly this. Google has basically integrated Anti-Virus into Chrome, one of their most prized possessions.
 
Google won't waste time to create AVs, they are more oriented to create secure OS that won't need AVs , like Linux did and it is the way MS is taking.

Android (if non-rooted) is safe enough if you don't install unknown and fancy apps.

If the OS is safe enough , nobody needs a 3rd party AV.
It is why kaspersky and some started bashing MS and WinDef ; because their business is at risk.
When all users will be on Win10, security vendors will lose lot of incomes.
 
I don't know if an OS completely virus proof is even possible... There's always software flaws to be exploited....
 
Security built-in (secure) by design +1
