Weird times when you’ve got all three browsers open at all times:
1. Chrome — for payments & banks (atleast for now)
2. Comet — fading fast
3. Atlas — the new best friend
Is it just me?
Jamming with ChatGPT on first principles about superpowers I want to gain —using visuals (mermaid), cheat sheets (notion), and examples—is my favorite way to learn these days. It’s like a 100x speed boost to any other technique in the past.
When I first moved to the US, I constantly felt behind—missing context, from slang to systems. LLMs help bridge that gap—if you have the agency to ask. I’m optimistic about a future where access to knowledge leads to a more fulfilled life for all.
@sundarpichai reminded that Google has weathered major disruptions before—from mobile shrinking ad real estate to TikTok challenging YouTube. Navigating the AI wave won’t be easy, but Google’s track record suggests they know how to adapt and win.
Sundar Pichai's Biggest Regret as Google CEO: Not Buying Netflix When He Had the Chance!
@friedberg:
"As we wrap up, I want to ask you one last question to hopefully frame your experience of the last 10 years as CEO."
"Biggest regret? Biggest mistake?"
@sundarpichai:
"There's a lot of small regrets."
"You know, by nature I tend to look forward and I learn from mistakes we make."
"But look, there are acquisitions we debated hard, came close."
Friedberg:
"Just gimme one name."
Sundar:
"We'll get in trouble. Maybe Netflix."
"Right, like we debated Netflix at some point super intensely inside."
"So you go through these moments, right?"
"And I wouldn't call it regrets, but you always look back and in a world of butterfly effects, there were alternate paths, but maybe they are in a different part of the multiverse."
Could you imagine what Google would look like with YouTube AND Netflix?! 🤯🤯🤯
