In a YouTube interview with content creator Varun Mayya, Sundar Pichai advised young engineers to deepen their understanding of technology. Responding to Mayya's mention of the FAANG interviews, Pichai acknowledged the industry in India dedicated to helping individuals crack these interviews. Despite acknowledging the intelligence of many students, Pichai noted that some fail to focus on the fundamentals, which are crucial for success.
When asked for advice for budding software engineers on preparing for the future, Pichai referenced Aamir Khan's film "3 Idiots," stating that "real success comes from understanding things in a deeper way." He illustrated the difference between knowing something and truly understanding it by referring to the iconic motor scene from the movie.
Recently, Google announced plans to introduce AI-generated answers to online queries, with Sundar Pichai expressing excitement about the launch of the revamped experience, titled "AI overviews," in the US. The technology, powered by Gemini, will provide concise summaries sourced from the internet along with links to the original content. This development reflects Google's response to the increasing competition from AI-powered search engines like Perplexity and rumors about OpenAI developing its own AI search tool.
