&#8220;Google is Dancing to its Own Music,&#8221; says Sundar Pichai
Google’s chief, Sundar Pichai, has responded to Microsoft’s CEO, Satya Nadella’s, statement about making Google ‘dance.’ Pichai said that he is not listening to the noise and is instead focused on his own vision for Google. “I think one of the ways you can go wrong is by listening to the noise out there and dancing to someone else’s music.” said Pichai in an interview with Bloomberg. “I’ve always been very clear. I think we have a clear sense of what we need to do,” he added. When asked, “So you are listening to your own music?” Pichai replied, “That’s exactly right.” For quite some time, Pichai has been under scrutiny regarding whether he is the right person to lead Google. Pichai replied, “I put a lot of chips on Google,” adding that one of the first things he did when he became CEO was to pivot Google sharply to focus on AI, as well as invest more in YouTube and Cloud to build them into big businesses. Lately, Microsoft has significantly enhanced its Bing search engine by integrating OpenAI’s ChatGPT, which has given them a competitive edge in AI driven search capabilities. This partnership, established in 2019, has allowed Microsoft to improve Bing’s performance and market share. Last year, Microsoft sued Google, accusing the company of using unfair tactics to maintain its dominance as a search engine. Nadella said, “At the end of the day, they’re the 800-pound gorilla in this. That is what they are. And I hope that, with our innovation, they will definitely want to come out and show that they can dance. And I want people to know that we made them dance, and I think that’ll be a great day”. Despite these efforts, Google’s search engine continues to hold a substantial market share, estimated at around 90%, with Bing still trailing significantly behind. However, Google is facing stiff competition from Perplexity AI, as well as OpenAI, which is planning to launch its own ‘Google Search Alternative Soon.‘
