Google to expand engineering workforce by 2026 amid AI investments: CEO Sundar Pichai
Alphabet Inc.’s Chief Executive Sundar Pichai has said that Google will continue to expand its engineering team through at least 2026, even as the company deepens its focus on artificial intelligence (AI). Speaking at the Bloomberg Tech conference in San Francisco, Pichai noted that while AI is changing the nature of work, human talent remains central to Google’s operations.
The tech giant’s approach contrasts with moves by other major firms such as Microsoft, which has made significant job cuts this year. These layoffs have been attributed in part to the steep costs of staying competitive in the rapidly evolving AI landscape.
