Co-founder of Google born in Moscow in 1973, who developed the search algorithm alongside Larry Page and later returned to lead Google's AI initiatives, particularly working on Gemini. Podcasts discuss him across business, technology, and policy contexts—including his role in Google's innovation model, his championing of products like Google Glass, and his involvement in debates around wealth inequality and tech industry activism.
