Sundar Pichai Responds Again to Satya Nadella’s Playful ‘Dance Invite’

Google and Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai subtly responded to Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella’s remark about making Google “dance” in the AI race. On the All-In podcast, Pichai diplomatically praised tech competitors like Altman, Musk, Zuckerberg, and Nadella, adding humorously that only one invited him to a dance. This follows his earlier statement rejecting the idea that Google was reacting to Microsoft’s AI push. Pichai emphasized focusing on Google’s own vision and not “dancing to someone else’s music.” Nadella had earlier said Microsoft’s AI-powered Bing increased competition in search and hoped Google would be pushed to “dance” in response.
