Sundar Pichai was the CEO of Google, and is now CEO of its parent company, Alphabet. In 2022 he was paid $226 million. Google is said to be worth $1.7 trillion. It employs 150,000 people, including about 30,000 engineers. A giant.
You're familiar with its search engine, its email (gmail), and of course Youtube. Gemini was supposed to be its splashy entrant into the generative artificial intelligence market, an answer to ChatGPT by this technology giant.
