That is pretty general, but more important seems untrue. All I ever heard Sundar say both internally and externally was about making Google “more helpful”. He said it so much and it was such a boring and bland statement that it really frustrated and nearly angered me. So yes, he lacks vision and specific product strategy here, but I think he is trying (badly) to move the narrative away from technology towards people

Your statement isn’t entirely incompatible with the one your’re replying to.

Sundar may think that “more productive” is a technology statement, which would reflect a serious lack of product vision.

He may even think he’s focusing on people despite having exec planning sessions all framed as “technology that lets people do ______”.

The only thing I am refuting is his focus on technology. By beating the constant drum of “be helpful in peoples live” he is making the help explicit but the technology is implied. My point is he doesn’t _focus_ on technology. He is trying to get the company to focus on people
