Doesn't really matter. Google's infra is all the client you need to continue pouring tens of billions into a project like this, bonus if others start using it more in the cloud, but they have so much use for accelerators across th

People are begging for Sundar to do something unexpected or ambitious, his job is just to manage things uncontroversially as possible for a company that with that size and influence. The Google doomerism here is strong (as it's been fo

I think for whatever reason he is the main reason people expect Teslas most ambitious things to succeed. Also the first thing new CEO would do would be to reset expectations so they aren't blamed for not meeting the wildly optimistic t

The main fear with letting him go has to be that it might start being valued like a car company, which would be very bad for shareholders even if it was good for the company to have a CEO that works at Tesla full-time
