Presentation on Larry page ( CO-FOUNDER OF GOOGLE)DeepRathi2
-Larry Page stepped down as CEO of Alphabet, the parent of Google, in December 2019 but remains a board member and a controlling shareholder.
-He cofounded Google in 1998 with fellow Stanford Ph.D. student Sergey Brin.
-With Brin, Page invented Google's PageRank algorithm, which powers the search engine.
-Page was CEO until 2001, when Eric Schmidt took over, and then from 2011 until 2015, when he became CEO of Google's new parent company Alphabet.
I am a graduate student in Management and Systems and I gathered some articles about Google Inc. that I found for my research and added my personal opinion. Any comments are more than welcome!!!!

Google: The Quest to Balance Privacy
with Profits
INTRODUCTION
When Sergey Brin and Larry Page created their search engine “BackRub” in 1996, they could not
have imagined at the time what the future held for their creation. BackRub was unique in that it
used links to rank web pages. Before this time, search engines tended to use algorithms that only
took into account key words, so when a certain item was searched, the user might receive links to
webpages that were both legitimate and less legitimate (or irrelevant). Brin and Page’s algorithm,
which they dubbed PageRank, accounted for links, roughly equivalent to citations, which went into
and out of the website. This complex mathematical algorithm worked. Results were ranked
according to their relative importance, allowing users to see the most “legitimate” search results
first. In 1998, the search engine Google was officially born, named after the term “gogol,” a
mathematical term for a 1 followed by 100 zeros.
Google’s ease of use for users propelled the search engine to its number one status, ousting
competing search engines such as WebCrawler and Infoseek. As Google gained in popularity, it
expanded into a number of different ventures, including advertising, book publishing, social
networking, and mobile phones. The company also acquired or owns a number of other well-known
sites, such as Orkut (a social-networking site popular in Brazil and India), the photo-sharing site
Picasa, and YouTube, the most popular video sharing site in the world. In 2011 it launched Google+,
a social networking site being watched carefully by its competitor Facebook. For four consecutive
years, Google was considered to be the most valuable brand in the world (although it was
surpassed by Apple in 2011). Approximately 2 billion searches a day are performed through
Google’s search engine.
As is common with most large companies, Google has experienced its share of ethical issues. Its
mantra “Don’t Be Evil” was questioned after it entered China, where it allowed the government to
censor some of its sites. Its wide reach and its plans to publish millions of books online has incurred
lawsuits from both publishers, who accused the co.

the brutal suppression of demonstrators in China in June 1989. The same search on Google.cn
provided a much smaller list and included pictures of a smiling couple in the square.2
The decision to develop Google.cn was complicated. In the words of Elliot Schrage,
Google’s vice president of Global Communications and Public Affairs:
[Google, Inc., faced a choice to] compromise our mission by failing to serve our
users in China or compromise our mission by entering China and complying with
Chinese laws that require us to censor search results.… Based on what we know
today and what we see in China, we believe our decision to launch the Google.cn
service in addition to our Google.com service is a reasonable one, better for
Chinese users and better for Google.… Self-censorship, like that which we are
now required to perform in China, is something that conflicts deeply with our core
principles.… This was not something we did enthusiastically or something that
we’re proud of at all.3
MacLean knew that he was perfectly prepared for his current position as director of
International Business. After earning a computer-science degree, MacLean had traveled
extensively, implementing information systems with an IT consulting firm. He was well-versed
in the technical and cultural components of this current project. It was his first job after earning
an MBA. He had worked very hard as a summer intern to get his foot in the door at Google, Inc.,
and landed a job offer in his second year of the MBA program. He had been working at Google
for 13 months and was starting to worry about his job security. Within the organization, he did
not have enough political capital to weather a storm of critiques.
The congressional hearing had planted seeds of doubt in MacLean’s head about the
Google in China decision. Was Google endorsing censorship by conforming to the Chinese
authorities’ rules? Was Google acting as a tool for the government? Were Chinese citizens better
off after Google’s decision to enter China with Google.cn? MacLean was starting to question
whether the decision went against their stated mission of organizing the world’s information and
making it universally accessible and useful.4
Google’s top leadership had left open the door for revising their strategy by always
reminding reporters and those in the company that the decision was made based on the
information currently available. The company was not afraid to revisit previous decisions.
MacLean had only one day before attending a meeting where he would be queried on the
development and implementation of Google’s China strategy and asked for his suggestions for
future courses of action. The Senate hearing had attracted a lively audience and had generated
vigorous debate. There was a lot of pressure to act, but MacLean’s instinct was to stick by his

Introduction to the company
Google LLC is a US international technology organization that focusses on Internet-related products and services, which contain search engines, online marketing technologies, cloud computing, hardware, and software. The purpose of Google management is to organize all the information in the world and create it nearby and beneficial to everyone (Shane, & Wakabayashi, 2018).
The company Google was born as a search engine for more information on the web. Its main characteristic with respect to its competitors was its advanced system of analysis of relations between pages, which allowed a higher ranking or ranking. Google's next step was to use this information to introduce advertising and manipulate the ranking based on the payment for such advertising. The enormous benefits that the company achieves are reinvested in new services and new policies that have strengthened the individual-segmentation relationship, reaching perfect segmentation (Mingers, & Lipitakis, 2010).
Google is an American multinational company focusing on products and services linked to the Internet, electronic devices, software and other expertise.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
