My two cents; by picking a CEO who only knew Google, an environment full of self delusion that Google itself was responsible for Google’s success.
A general social trend to value tech in our lives seems lost on the genius CEOs. They really seem to think billions care they specifically exist, when really if they did not someone else would have been CEO. Some other company that came before Google would be Google big if not Google quality in search (which has gone to shit under the management of their current genius CEO).
Hubris, lack of social awareness, lack of career experience outside the Google RDF created a hyper-normalized world view.
Paraphrasing PG, who wrote somewhere, I forget where, don’t underestimate the power of money to motivate. We’re not picking good companies, just playing simple arithmetic games with fiat money.
