Episode notes

By the time i was in college, given my er interests were shaping up to be. I would say i can count the number of hours it maybe in one or two hands. So that that's how much i'd seen it. But only when i came to stanford, there were these labs in which i could go and work and have unlimited access and programm. And so it was like a entire new world opened up for me.I didn't quite realize at the time, the internet was fully under way. I was just fascinated by having access to so many computers.

Drive. Docs. Chrome. Maps. Gmail. Android. What do these products have in common? Of course, they’re all Google, but what you may not know is that they all came to fruition under the management of the same person: Sundar Pichai. This track record in product development ultimately landed Sundar the CEO role at one of the biggest, most innovative companies in the world.

This week on How I Built This Lab, Sundar reflects on the unique journey that led him to Google, and the values that inspire and drive his leadership today. He and Guy also discuss Google’s recent advances in artificial intelligence, and how the company is reimagining the workplace as offices across the globe reopen.
