Given: - the string of missed opportunities in the last 10 years (specifically AI) - the string of user-hostile product decisions (latest: adblockers vs YT) - the complete lack of innovation (name a cool product launched by G in the last 5 years) - the clear and present competitive threat to their flagship product (search vs. OpenAI) - the once great culture that is rotting in place (see article) - the stock price completely flat or slightly down for the past two years - the enormous waste of goodwill Google had accumulated with both the world and their own employees, now all spilt on the floor (I mean, they've chosen to turn predatory, I'm not going to say fine, but ultimately: their choice. BUT: they don't even have the financial numbers that would justify such an about turn). How that ball-less wonder Sundar still has a job as CEO, or at all for that matter, is nothing short of amazing. Board is asleep at the wheel.
