Mr Pichai is wearing a Pixel Watch ... first glimpse of it :)

[@a.mustafa9698]

Please sit further apart. Looks so awkward how close the interviewer is. It's a recode interview not a date

[@barbarosozturk]

These segments are always amazing. Thank you for sharing!

[@LaDariusNorris]

I think Google is a great company, but I'm really only here to look at the Pixel Watch on Sundar's wrist.

[@LeeWoods]

Sundar seems like a really thoughtful and smart leader. Google has always stuck out to me due to their vision of organizing the world's information and making it universally accessible to their focus on artificial intelligence. Their services are accessible to everyone no matter if you're from a wealthy community or not.

[@comeon100100]

feel the power of India. please respect the king sundar.

[@jddyea5527]

they could do a better job at focusing on a return for their stock holders.

[@TristanRega]

Is that reporter throwing mad shady comments in or am I just high

[@harshavardhanvenkatasaikot6861]

That was Ruthless the way they asked directly questions and every question he was like we were progressing ........

[@AravindanUmashankar]

The amount of scrutiny he handled with equanimity is commendable, Kara was relentless & ruthless .. Sundar honest and at times ambivalent.. such interview at open forums are super high stake .. many of the issues brought to light needs to be revolved by multi stakeholder committees , sooner the better…he is certainly one of the best tech executives in action

[@anurag01a]

Don't y'all think the seats are too close? Isn't it uncomfortable for Sundar!? In the Conferences and Podcasts, I have never seen the seats being too close.

[@fc7alibi]

I noticed this, too. Kara's foot is literally between his legs. I don't know what body language experts would think of this.

[@zhan_fontaine_XYZ]

i was searching for this comment ;)

[@comeon100100]

feel the power of India. please respect the king sundar.

[@MusicalMemeology]

She’s doing the fbi method of getting close etc to make the guests uncomfortable etc.

[@TM-qc5oz]

Whats with all that attitude from the interviewer. She is behaving as if these CEOs are working under her and reporting to her.

[@camui87]

White people are generally racists. And Sundar being Indian, she must be jealous and envy him.

[@agastyasfz]

i like it-they need to be pressed by someone. we need more of this pressure applied to CEOs, politicians, and all leaders. imagine if Fox news truly held trump’s antics to account, if CNN acknowledged the train wreck of biden…

[@josecanales2978]

She’s a reporter as well

[@nothisispatrick5123]

Shes a reporter… this is recode its her thing ..

[@abhiequal]

She has to press CEOs so that she can get the truth. She is doing her job.

[@anirudhjattangi5804]

Such a master class in maintaining your poise even if the interviewer didn't have any.

[@MuzhiLi]

the interviewer kept trying to make sure she is the smart one in the room.

[@indhudharmavarapu5211]

True

[@rdashok2010]

Exactly !! Great Leaders don't get carried away with these half-baked who got nothing but attitude !!

[@hughesmatt0318]

What did she do that so offends you? All these CEOs know Kara; they wouldn't accept the interview if they were the shrinking violets you think they are.

[@RIJU9285]

Possibly the only leader worth their salt in big tech today

[@JJ-qo2vx]

Very arrogant interviewer. Whoever she thinks she is 🤨. But see how gently and calmly Mr. Sundar answers to her questions. That clearly shows that he's a gentleman.

[@prrithwirajbarman8389]

Even that old dude. That old man in the beginning is very very rude.

[@prrithwirajbarman8389]

35:02 she is looking somewere else

[@joyelgt]

That's what makes him the CEO of the greatest companies and she is not.

[@BlipBlopFlipFlop]

@@prrithwirajbarman8389 how old are you? She is very much listening, eye contact is not necessarily automatically going to make someone rude. She is interviewing him, it is HER job to ask questions. This isn't a friendly conversation podcast, she doesn't appear to say anything

[@preprethew]

oh god she's a reporter what is she supposed to do? kiss his ass?

[@tomkostopoulos5541]

Kara may be most arrogant interviewer ever. She needs to delete this woke overconfident character she’s playing

[@ayushsharma9036]

Not sure why she keeps calling out the fact that she called him an idiot ..I know she is being lighthearted - just comes across as crass.

[@musashi-san____1409]

That interviewer is so hostile at some moments, it's almost like a roast

[@riser9644]

Everything is politics, but there is only one correct position

[@camdobie]

That was a low key condescending interview.

[@PaulSyng]

Stop describing her personality 😂

[@ginchadope2171]

Thank you Sundar for giving me the ability to post this on your platform: The host of this show needs to get tips on how to interview people. Passive, under your breathe non-sense is really unappealing.

[@rasty_habibi]

She’s someone who hates all businessmen but never actually ran a business of her own. She makes pretty rude, simple-minded comments.

[@ginchadope2171]

@@rasty_habibi exactly. We live in a world where we cancel experts, but dont cancel wanna bes.

[@ryancortez5479]

What “non-sense” is being said?

[@DanWalmsley]

I quite like Kara’s approach. She gets different answers that are actually enlightening and won’t let business leaders just act like a human press release.

[@setkdath1997]

Dude, i thought your profile picture was a new function of KZbin

[@nikhilsawlani5623]

Sundar What an amazing leader, very impressive on each aspect! you are an inspiration for me. Huge takeaway for me: Learn to be as humble as Sundar.

[@brianbook9454]

Being open & humble are intellectual virtues. Knowledge is a social phenomenon, because encouraging a diversity of opinions is the best way to overcome individual biases & prejudices, to seek the truth. Think about wikipedia. Do conservatives seek the truth, or confirmation of their own ideology?

[@lingyizhang1495]

Jesus, all these boring social and political questions~ c'mon it's Pichai over there, ASK SOME TECH & BUSINESS Questions!

[@abirroy1333]

Super computer science is a niche field to focus on With all these large amount of cloud data only few companies, if any, can compete with Google's knowledge graph So I think this is a field you can think about. You have to realise your competitors are countries or states providing services using super computers meaning you are providing services to NASA Also do think about Ar/Vr gaming industry and ways to provide secure platform for them

[@sc9084]

Wish they got better interviewers for these. Or at least ones that were are decent

[@tmchugh]

There are great journalists who can ask tough questions, and get to the truth, without being crass. Perhaps someone should mention this to Kara.

[@finelliott2440]

I agree, and she is often invading their space with her legs..

[@LoisSharbel]

This host is rudely inserting her bias in asking you to judge yourself and your efforts in a field in which she obviously has contrasting opinions. I find her offensive and you too much of a gentleman to call her on i.

[@LoisSharbel]

Impossible to watch this rude, opinionated interviewer any more! I hate to miss what Pichai has to say in the last half, but I will have to look for him in another venue, with a smarter, more open minded interviewer.

[@RahulRatnagiri]

This was a grilling not an interview I was expecting

[@arpsri9675]

It may take a life time for one person to respect himself/herself. But how long it take to judge someone ? How long it take to decide to kill or beat someone?

Google, please make a better electronic medical record system. We are currently in a strangle hold by Epic which has terrible UI. It makes us so much less efficient. I'd love to have a user friendly medical system which uses AI to assist me. It's a huge market and really would leverage all of your skills (UI, search, cloud, AI, etc.).

[@ravitejaknts]

She is unfit for a interview like this.

(Unspecified pronoun) is very typical. And replaceable. And piles on questions before they can be addressed. Confuses the listener as much as (unspecified pronoun) confuses (unspecified pronoun's) self. He's one of a kind. Highly focused, informative, intuitive and efficient. And saved this presentation. Enough said.

[@2011hwalker]

[@davadh]

She's mainly doing her job as a "journalist" but I think she's asking the wrong questions that seems a bit pushy, rather she could had gotten better answers if she just reword some of her questions. At the same time, can't blame her since she's needs to answer the political questions that her editors are looking for

[@SivasakthiC]
