I actually think most people don't want Google to answer their questions. They want Google to tell them what they should be doing next.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Google is where we go for answers. People used to go elsewhere or, more likely, stagger along not knowing.
Even though Google may do very well, there will always be an alternative to what Google is doing, and people will always have the free choice... because there's no way for us to prevent them from exercising that choice. That is one of the key aspects of why the Internet has been so successful. No technologies can dominate.
I think Google is a great company, and they're doing really cool things. But they're not doing things that are going to put us, I think, into the next generation of technology.
To get people to switch from Google, you have to offer something twice as better. But the truth is, the world doesn't actually need better-quality search. I think we've got good enough search.
There's a set of people who are intrinsic oppositionists to everything Google does.
There's this open question of what Google is going to be a decade or more from now. Google X isn't the only answer to that question, but it was built as a place to do some of the exploration to find some great new problems for Google to tackle.
If we want to help Google become something meaningfully different in the future, then that's more likely to happen if we focus on the physical world instead.
If you want my answer about Donald Trump, you can Google it. It's everywhere. They've got this new thing called Google.
It's become something of a ritual - every year, Google publishes its year-end summary of what the world wants, and every year I complain about how shallow it is, given what Google really knows about what the world is up to.
I would rather Google other people than Google myself.
