Sundar Pichai.
1. 1. Sundar Pichai
(Notes Prepared by Dr. G. N. Khamankar)
Summary:
Sundar Pichai is currently the CEO of Google Inc. He contributed to Chrome
with Android. He was born on 12th
July 1972 in Madras in Tamilnadu. His
mother Lakshmi Pichai was a stenographer. His father Regunatha Pichai, was
an Electrical Engineer who worked at General Electric and owned a
manufacturing plant. His fatherтАЩs work ethic and a constant exposure to
technology inspired him from a young age. He has been regarded as brilliant
students. After his schooling education, he joined IIT Kharagpur and studied
metallurgical engineering. Thereafter, he was granted admission to Stanford
University in the U.S. He earned a MasterтАЩs degree in Engineering and
Material Science and later he got Management degree from the Wharton
School of Business.
Initially he worked at a company dealing with semiconductor devices called
Applied Material Inc. and then as a management consultant for Mckinsey &
Co. He joined Google in 2004 as a manager for the Google Toolbar, later he
took over as a vice president of product management, and oversaw research
and development of consumer product such as Google, Google Toolbar,
Desktop Search and Gadgets, Google Pack and Gears.
2. In 2011, he became senior vice-president of Google Chrome and Apps. He
was largely responsible for products including the Chrome browser and
operating system, Gmail, Calendar, Google Docs and Google Drive. In 2015
he was appointed as the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Google Inc.
With its latest product Google Assistant, it is clear that Google has now
actively embraced artificial intelligence (AL) technology and Pichai has been
leading this from the front. He said that AL is one of the most important things
that humanity is working on.
GoogleтАЩs pervasiveness has also raised fears of a world monopolized and
controlled by large corporates such as Apple, Amazon and Google. Recently
data privacy on social media such as Facebook and Whats App make it even
clearer that unless consumers consciously inform themselves and ask for
control of their private data, corporations may use it for their own financial
and political gain.
Technology needs to be used with care, and the benefits balanced with risks.
While it is unlikely that the world will revert to the pre- Google world in the
near future, innovation in technology seems to be working towards making it
simple to use without letting it encroach into personal space.
In a blog that declared Sundar Pichai elevation as a CEO of Google Inc. Larry
Page said тАЬwe have long believed that over time companies tend to get
comfortable doing the same thing, just making incremental changes. But in
the technology industry, where revolutionary ideas drive the next big growth
areas, we need to be a bit uncomfortable to stay relevant.тАЭThus Sundar Pichai
proved to be an important milestone in the field of Google and its innovations.
