Fireside chat with Google co-founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin with Vinod Khosla

[@JeremyDeanLakey]

When Larry gets excited about something, he stops talking, turns and smiles as if he's waiting for others to realize how cool it is.

[@survivalist_2024]

Sergey just woke up from a nap

[@Nizchul]

And we all are still sleeping!...

[@akshatjain07065]

Ja mes that's called coolness. formed a crazy company just by sleeping.

[@rasalghul84]

Ja mes he always looks like he woke up from a nap

[@118Columbus]

Ja mes his team of Ukrainian hookers woke. Him up after fucking him all night long

[@PavanMuppala]

Cuz he can make money while sleeping

[@arashkani8090]

0:30 Google's Almost Acquisition 3:43 Vinod is glad Larry and Sergey didn't sell 5:51 What do companies need to do to not go out of business? 7:55 What are the critical things for Google to do? 12:00 How much of a role does AI play moving forward? 13:22 Mentioning GV as a ML Investing firm 16:00 Larry on how being happy isn't hard. 20:30 Ideas as part of the economy. 21:40 How will self-driving cars change society? 25:20 How do you think about focus? 28:50 Can Google be a health company? 33:00 On losing Larry's voice.' 34:20 Have you disagreed as cofounders? 35:20 What would have happened if you sold to Excite? 36:40 Government 2.0 39:50 How did you deal with Eric Schmidt as the first CEO?

[@ShoaibKhan]

Arguably the best tech-duo of our time! Page and Brin!

[@zakelfassi]

at 12:10 when Sergey picked on Larry about being the first AI prototype ... PRICELESS !!!

[@kaysha]

Visionnaries...

[@Bulbophile]

wonder how many yrs we might have weighted for web indexing if they didn't set into it?

[@OliverExley]

I don't know about anyone else, but I wish this was a longer video! Watching/listening to Larry and Sergey brings so many emotions that I don't get from anyone else.

[@LeonDavisMay15thProphecy]

Page and Brin, who rarely take the stage together for interviews, start the 40-minute session by reminiscing with Khosla about Google's aborted sale to search engine Excite

[@glueee2621]

Such amazing guys. A perfect blend of creativity and technological understanding.

[@MakeSushi1]

very interesting interview!

[@itsmoneytoday]

The future is going to be amazing. I think many of the issues that present us will be solved. How? I am not sure. My worry is the vector that technology and the massive displacement of workers resulting in the disintegration of jobs as we know this is going to be a serious ride to watch.

[@lucyscarpelli]

#FiresideChat Awesome Chat with GOOGLE with Vinod Khosla. Enjoy time to watch & listening Larry & Sergey . Smart, funny,insightful & popular! What's Focus?! - What's not?!

Almighty God bless everyone 🙏🙏

[@aybee63]

Cities full of self driving cars are still a very long way off but it's great someone is taking a punt on realizing them.

[@SupesCoob]

Most would be be wise to listen. The current system isn't sustainable unless you're happy being on the road that'll call for the most blood down the line? Perhaps yours. Mass automation is inevitable and at that point so is mass unemployment. Many jobs now are pointless, adding nothing, there to keep people occupied leaving many feeling despondent. Nobody likes to feel as though what they're doing is pointless. These men understand that changes in the economic and social systems, as well as our psykie must come about in order for us to evolve to the next level where it's less about making money and more about the betterment of yourself and humanity.

[@AmandaVieiraMamaesouCult]

We are gonna have a hard time adjusting to this new reality. People still get a sense of dignity by paying their own bills, but at the same time, many lost sense of purpose. I think automation will be an opportunity for us to repurpose the nature of work. We still have a lot of problems to be solved: hunger, diseases still uncured, more materials need recycling, scaling production, etc. We are gonna need a lot fo work, and a lot of years of study to solve all those problems. Maybe in the future, work will mean study, research and creation more than just short-term tangible production to pay bills. We'll have to be more long-term oriented. The problem is most educational systems are not ready to qualify all those new people. (At least, not in my country, and I read that black districts in US are not doing well, either.) Schools barely can produce good math skills, much less produce a new generation of scientists, engineers and researchers.

[@JeremyReger]

Can't wait to see where this goes..

[@tyzxcj34]

Miss hearing from Larry & Sergay and sad that they stepped down.

[@MarcusMillerUK]

I find it fascinating when people criticise those out there that take moonshots - without big ideas there would be no big change. What have these guys got to lose at this point? Why not try to change the world?

[@muralikrishnan9791]

Absolutely, I believe that when people take moonshots they believe in a long term impact that can change that particular ecosystem. But short term goals and greed and the propagation of such mindsets doesn't help anyone to make an impact. I believe both Larry and Sergey have a very broad mindset of how their work can positively impact the world in another 100 years.

[@catherinedetrizio7312]

these guys are the best! god bless Larry and Sergey

[@NitinBansal85]

Thats what we need....companies which think for the world....the betterment of it...Google is one such company. I just love it..

[@catherinedetrizio7312]

if they sold the company, the world would have gone to shit! they are impartial, kind, and good owners, and its so great they kept the company! they give the best news ever and are an amazing company! I am so glad this company exists!

[@pablozapata6551]

Excellent talk.

[@AdamShaiken]

I really appreciate Sergey's wry sense of humor.

[@paul_owen]

10:33 "Maybe you don’t want to ask a question. Maybe you just want to have it answered for you before you ask it. That would be better." Larry Page

[@MrTenad]

I wonder what model Nike shoes Larry Page is wearing? I like their design. The simple $29.99 Crocks Sergey Brin wears are super funny contrast to the tailor made shoes worn by Vinod Khosla. I find that the range of shoes in this interview tells a lot about change in society.

[@yankumar5280]

thanks for sharing Khosla Ventures

[@NicholasOsto]

Good talk. I really like Sergey's vision of the self driving car benefits. #google #technology #ventures #larrypage #sergeybrin

[@aybee63]

Ha!!! Luv the crocs though people say they shouldn't be worn out! Well if a billionaire wears them then they must be cool? Thanks for verifying something I've always known Sergey!

[@ItsPriscillaB]

Am I the only one that loves Sergey's hair? =) #imjustsaying #googleyandfree FutureFocused4U

[@tyzxcj34]

Really great interview. Wish it was longer.

[@yuehkhim]

May God bless you guys!

[@zarkoff45]

Larry Page was asked how society should deal with unemployment that may arise from technological advances. He suggested that companies should consider hiring two part-time workers to do one full-time job. This way more people are employed, which is better for society. Not sure how much since that makes, but at least they are starting to think about the larger social consequences of what they are doing.

[@ollygosling]

It appears Sergey is wearing Crocs...

[@IvorKellock]

awesome awesome share thank you ;-) Brilliant...........;-)

[@MartinBrossman]

Very important to take the time to listen to this interview with Google co-founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin by Vinod Khosla. #LarryPage #SergeyBrin #Google #Android #GoogleX

[@mahadevyedake2494]

Vinod g khosla Sr nmskaar good morning

[@dannyiskandar]

it is inspiring to listen to this talks. It is very exciting and scary too what would happened in the future. this is about the automation of a repetitive process to a machine/robot/AI. We as a human being would have more time to use our mind for something that is less repetitive/boring in this life, something that is more creative and (Larry/Sergey is right) to have more time something that is really important to us (more fun, problem solving, to be passionate on something). To me I think that is a very fascinating future to life in ......

[@Shaunt1]

Nice to hear from these two giants.

[@SydneyArmani]

We live in a world of social networking and web 2.0 is all about interaction and collaboration, rather than static content. That’s the power of the crowd, and it is incumbent on those of us in this industry to leverage to the tools to enhance the experience of the crowd and hopefully create a more engaging experience.

[@AmandaVieiraMamaesouCult]

"Google is evil", said the person using KZbin.

[@yuehkhim]

I remembered Google is having Anti-Evil Campaign few years ago. I am sure Google is tackling Something until you are thinking that way.

[@BlaineWarkentine]

Thanks. enjoyed this discussion.

[@CalculusVariations99]

40 hour work week could end for highly paid knowledge workers in the upper middle class, but people trying to make ends meet in services and manual labor are putting in 60 to 80 hour weeks to maintain a poorer living standard than the same sorts of workers were making decades ago.

[@AmandaVieiraMamaesouCult]

that is why they need to study in some field that would make them employable and develop an expertise. We need better public education for that, there is only so much companies can do regarding this.

[@RobertOortwijn]

Larey and Sergey do look very casual knowing they founded Google.

[@iFreeThink]

My IIT connection was MCC being blue-and-white. Because the computers let anyone - play PC games or - pretend to take their "number of credits the semester gets multiplied by whatever for the number of hours a week of studying" concept to a formula. Maybe ASU could have a blue-and-white, license-plate sticker for IIT-designated, pressure-cooker tournaments. #HIIT-for-Div.-1-sports-opportunities

[@rewatiraman2956]

Great Vinod

[@sibanisengupta8680]

It is the long term vision that counts.

[@fabriziobertoglio7288]

If they would be presidents of the US, the country would go amazing

[@118Columbus]

Fabrizio Bertoglio Sergei is not constitutionally eligible because he was not born in the USA.

[@JohnFurrier]

Search at the time didn't get google bc they all thought portals were the way to go when in fact search relevance was still sucky at them AND the growth of the web was still in its' infancy. Google stayed true to it's vision and was in essence the only real search engine left after the bubble. The other players never innovated and were never considered search engines at all.

[@cixin10x]

4:06 Dat voice, I think Larry Page is Batman. Keep eyes on Larry during night time.

[@accident1583]

I considered them as a heroes of modern technology

[@thudson99]

This concept was in the movie 9-5 years ago. Many studies are out there about the cottage industry, different work weeks, job sharing, etc. The employees are always happier. Working less hours, or every other Fri off works. Benefits are important to the employee and should be considered. It's an adjustment. For SOME families, it would work. Other people love jobs with high amounts of OT. But working differently changes the fwys, allows you to make dr./dental appts easily, and so many other things. Gates helped to change the way we dress on the job. Maybe this will help some small way? I would like to see more jobs with a mix of older and younger generations working together. I don't see enough of that.

[@GeorgeBaily]

I don't get why self-driving cars will reduce the need for parking. The opposite I would say, since more people more easily moving around in private cars. Surely we are not saying that self driving cars get shared? For that we would need a revolution in expectations of private vs public transport, which seems more far fetched than AI improving on human driving abilities.

[@Nguyening_music]

They could have instead 300 ground floor parking lot around the city, there would be one unified parking building that's 20 stories high, and the car can just drop you near your work so the roads won't be as congested around a certain building, which it is now, and then the car can just go park itself, and since it drives itself it won't give a crap that its wasting 15 minutes going up 20 stories to a parking spot. And before you leave your work just tell your car ahead of time, like OK google car, meet me at pickup destination in 15 minuted and it'll come pick you up. He even said the car will pick u up in the video

[@Nguyening_music]

This also could greatly increase public transportation as you won't need to hire full time workers to do what is sometime a part time job. For example if u work at BART u would be hired to drive your own train and u would be paid full time, regardless if there are people or not. A robot can drive 1 car train, 2, 3 whatever it may be that fits perfectly the amount of people that are waiting at the station at any point in time, can run 24/7 and can decrease or increase in workforce to adapt to workload. Greatly decreasing money to hire real drivers.

[@PascalBatzliJr]

George Baily They want to use car's as a service. You need to go somewhere, pop out your smartphone, and call a self-driving car, like cabs, but a lot less expensive.

[@quinnbennett1366]

These two should be running this country (USA), they actually care and want to make the earth a better place.

[@gouga8383]

Tons of charm and charisma here!

[@DiljinderNagra]

Sergey seems like he just popped out of the bed straight to this conference, but he managed to sound cool though.

[@immersionmusic]

I guess Excite was excited about page rank. One of all those, you might remember them. Once upon a time.

Reasons for Failure: Leaders are pretty short-term focussed 15:25

[@malvinderkaur4187]

the only thing success with resources need to earn is that there is something called social responsibility after the success and surplus has been achieved, because it is understandable their focus solely on that aim, that's all whether it new wealth or old wealth it doesn't matter.

[@BigDataLogin]

cool

[@gaurang1793]

I think we are living in the phase of saturation of technology, at least in consumer electronics field. I hope within 5 years a significant breakthrough would occur and the new generation of products will be introduced (like in past decade with touchscreens, smaller processors and mobile apps we had lots of cool new products from iPod, smartphones, tablets, etc.). By the way, can someone tell me which model of Nike shoe Larry is having in this interview?

[@Fritolay72]

There is a lot of heavy breathing going on in this interview.

[@viennas2old]

Larry wants Martine Aubry to govern the Us and last as long as Brejnev. Love it.

[@Maxire]

On the point made that people need something to do, I couldn't agree more. I'll expand on that: as technology progresses, we're going to have even less and less "demand" on our time, and more time to fill. Essentially, I'm pretty certain this is where recent generations struggle; a lack of immediate goal and a growing sense of immediacy. This also leads me to agree with how Larry believes we only need to work 1% of our time to be productive (context is in today's standards if you're successful and efficient in your work, utilizing tools that are possible). I'm hopeful that education systems will broadly embrace this issue and understand the importance of engineers, and how that will be the staple career in coming years. Nearly every position held by a person will eventually be adapted into an automated machine system and knowing how to operate, maintain, and repair those systems will be the highest demand everywhere. There will always remain niches for human labor to some extent, but the growing demand for people that don't want to be a slave to the current system will inevitably be our downfall if this isn't understood and taken seriously by those in positions capable of making differences.

[@AndrewRulnick]

A great share for Google Partners!

Larry Page Sergey Brin I have been developing a Pediatric Healthcare Ecosystem on Google for two years now. #kiddoEMR is the first pediatrician developed platform of its kind. As a pediatrician, I have been entrenched in healthcare regulation and at first glance, it may seem daunting, but in reality it is easy to comply. After talking to Glass at Work (Sami Tahari) it is clear how much pediatric/healthcare technology, is needed in this country. #kiddoEMR currently supports two pediatricians and 5000 kiddos in Cedar Park TX. Lots more to say of course, we are well ahead of the industry in offerings using my credibility as a pediatrician and developer. Please contact me with any questions. It is a revolution---just ask any of the #kiddoEMRbelievers
