RIP another quality Google Product

Frankly, the new now is flooded with products from Microsoft and layoffs from Google. Why is Google not able to innovate? What is that the Google lacking??

Atleast not in the form it is now. Found a rare good post on LinkedIn via Twitter which lists the reason why i think so. Also, I was reading psychology of money and one of the chapters discussed how GE used to be the most valued company in 2000s and how within 20 years, everything went to manhole. Google is seriously going through a leadership crisis. I hate Pichai from the gut. We Indians like him coz he's brown munda, but I have never seen such narrow minded CEO since Balmer.

I've seen many posts on products Google killed. What are some superior products/features by Google? I'll go first: Bard AI for Google Workspace (PS: don't say Google search :3 )

1. Result quality decline- For any content, I generally end up getting lots of spam results, essentially spammy SEO links. 2. Shit ton of ads- Almost first 5 posts are ads for any generic query. Hate using it. Someone needs to disrupt Search business soon and bring in new business model. Ps: I know about Neeva and few other companies attempting to change it. I sincerely hope they do. Also OpenAi is leading competitor to search now.

This has become a common discussion topic in my friend circle when we think about switching jobs. Earlier Google used to be number one choice for many, but now due to layoffs and the hear-say about toxic work culture in google cloud things are changing and people are preferring other companies. Is it the same for you as well ? has your perception of Google changing too? Is google loosing both the cloud and AI battle? @google

What are your thoughts on his email?
