Sundar Pichai vs Satya Nadella: Google CEO dares Microsoft boss for AI face-off; ‘Any day, any time’

Google CEO Sundar Pichai has taken a swipe at Microsoft chief Satya Nadella, calling for an “anytime, anywhere” AI duel between their companies’ models. Pichai was speaking at the New York Times’ DealBook Summit, where he talked about the pace of AI development and also the changes coming to search in 2025.

Notably, Nadella, while speaking at the Norges Bank Investment Management’s podcast earlier this year, had said, “Google should have been the default winner in the world of big tech’s AI race.”
