All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg
Sundar Pichai, CEO of Alphabet | The All-In Interview

So I feel like it expands the conversation into ways which you always don't expect. And out of it, which comes interesting ideas. So I think I always have access to that. But I think I've worked with them for such a long time. There is friendship, respect, mutual dialogue. We love doing that. And I think I'll always have that.

Look, it's obviously by definition, it's a very impressive group, right? And I think you're talking about some of the best companies, some of the best entrepreneurs, all that. Look, it shows both how much progress we are going to see because you're basically talking about many people who are working hard to drive that progress.

So to the earlier question, when you were talking about, are we going to see progress? The answer has got to be yes, because of the unique types of people here pushing progress, right? Look, each of them, they're different people. I am fortunate to know all of them. And I think maybe only one of them has invited me to a dance, not the others, right?

But I just look, I spent time with Elon maybe two weeks ago when I talked to him and his ability to build future technologies into existence. I think it's just unparalleled. So like, look, these are phenomenal people. I respect all of them. You know, there's partnerships involved, there's competition involved, but...

If I were to step back and say, at the end of the day, I love driving technology progress in a way that impacts people positively. When you think about areas like healthcare and other important areas, education, we are now talking about this is why AI is so profound. So the opportunity is what excites me. I think all of us are going to do well in this scenario. That's how I think about it.

when the internet happened, Google wasn't even around. So the other thing you can say is, there are companies we don't even know, haven't been started yet, their names aren't known. might be extraordinarily big winners in the AI thing, right? So it's going to be, AI is a much bigger landscape, opportunity landscape than all the previous technologies we have known. Combined. Combined.

And so, you know, so which is why I think it's all about, you know, the companies which will end up doing well are, you will do well because you're able to innovate and execute with the best talent. That ends up being the driver.

Look, I think the main moment from DeepSeek was... Look, always, if you follow the AI research and scan through papers and read them, nobody who does that would underestimate China. When you look at the amount of research output from China, they have extraordinary talent.
