when you joined google, june -- google was a small company.id you in your wildest dreams imagine it will become the second most soluble company in the entire world? >> i do not think any of us to. when i met them, they seemed incredibly intelligent. we had this huge argument over attempting -- something technical and i had not had a good of an argument over a long time and i thought i had to work with these people. i want to stay with the company that worked in one building. ceo at thewere a time you're ready to go to google. what propelled you to pay google is a company wanted to go to because you have many opportunities? >> who cares about a search engine? it will not matter very much. who uses search engines. he said, this is and what they were doing was so interesting and at the people they had recruited were so compelling, that i just had to be there. or not that novel at the time because of her plenty of search engine companies, so wanted to think google had a search engine that was going to change the world? i did not think google was g

we run on google infrastructure and we also benefit from google's ad team. we are a company within google, and so we have all parts that a company has, sales, marketing, engineering, and so we have some of the benefits of being with google but then we are also able to be a standalone brand within the company. emily: there are reports that youtube makes billions of dollars and still you said you -- youtube is still in investment mode. how would you describe your goals around profit short and long-term? susan: what we want to focus on is growing the business when you're in a big growth area. you have to balance doing that and doing that in a responsible way. tv which is one of the biggest markets from the subscription number, tv ad number, this is one of the biggest markets we have and the millennials, we are not seeing them watch as much tv, and so we see this as an opportunity to invest and continue to grow the product and continue to grow youtube to be a great experience. we need to do that in a responsible way. emily: according to a recent survey, for the

emily: you were google's 16th employee. you worked on google images, google books. the ad business. how many hats have you worn in 18 years? susan: when you join a startup, you have to be willing to do whatever the start up needs you to do. part of it, because i did not have a fixed role, i was always looking for the opportunity, and so, look, there is an opportunity. nobody else is working on image search. there are all these other people working on the text search, but images would be really cool. today that is a very popular search. i think doing a lot of things and having the freedom to move around the company allowed me to see a lot of opportunities and grow them. emily: it has been 10 years since google bought youtube, and you wrote the original justification plan that convinced them to buy the company. what did you see back then? susan: i did a spreadsheet, but i also believed in youtube. there was one video we had and that video convinced me and showed me that people all over the world can create content and be entertaining. the video was of these two studen

there's been an issue with google.h controversy if you search for something for a while, if you search around the holocaust, you get like obvious hate and racist sites that pop up and there are issues with quality control. sort of a similar issue that facebook has. you have search results that aren't necessarily true and verified. caroline: google can't be all things to all women and men. they doubled messages. this hasn't paid off for instagram, snap and the like. mark: the issue that will go forward, especially the election, things get sensitive what is fake news and the issues are removing conservative sites or progressive sites. liberal sites. it's something that google just like facebook has been reluctant to play an editorial role. caroline: talk to us a little bit about some of the wins for google and indeed alphabet and the fact they saw this new operating way, seems to have helped them out with the separation of the company and also a.i., what a winner towards the end of 2016. mark: right. they shifted all the

google was the first to do it., they put out their numbers, slicing and dicing by different racial groups, gender, , and leadership roles and technical roles as well as the company overall. and a bunch of other, you know, large tech companies followed, and their numbers all of kind of the same -- major representation of white people and asian people and very few black people and latinas. and a lot of men. it was usually around 70 men to 30 women. even more in leadership and technical roles. oliver: let's talk about slack technology, a startup going pretty quickly that plays a major role in this story. why did you focus on them? ellen: they are interesting when it comes to discussing diversity. you know, they are run by a man named stewart butterfield who has been around the valley for a long time and he cofounded flickr. he has done a bunch of other things. slack is a fairly new project that started in 2014. it had been built before. that is when the product came out. they were a small team when this was going on,

google x which is shrouded in secrecy.t the end of the day, cool stuff. >> the core things are the self driving car, loon, balloon powered internet -- you can think of these as little satellites that they float in the stratosphere and the other big one is weighing, delivery drones. they're doing tests in virginia are they are delivering chipotle. but the plan is that they will deliver lots of things. and they are bigger than your average room. and they're probably a handful of other products that got killed along the way? >> we know there was something called foghorn, a plan to bring hydrogen fuel. , a cargo blimpmp build there was a plan to giant tvs. that they also seem to have killed. so what they're trying to do is be a little bit smarter. in the past, google would just invest in cool things. coolow they say, is this and in business? then they arecool trying to be smart about the investments. moonshot been no new for two years. is this a result of the chief financial officer? he has said to my cowriter and i that it is

i started at google ventures.tually everything i have done in my life apart from having a child, i have done alone or started alone. i was fortunate to build an amazing team at google ventures. they are doing a great job, and there are lots of great funds in the valley, but there are problems. i don't know if being a professional vc, that the world needs another venture fund right now. emily: are we in a bubble, peak vc? where are we? bill: i think we are in a huge bubble. i think the election is a testament to that. there is almost too much capital available to investors, making too much capital available to on for neighbors, which raises prices, raises expectations, and there are a lot of people working on what i think of as trivial problems as opposed to the real problems the country faces. emily: what are the trivial problems? bill: do we need another optimized advertising system to consumer culture based on the consumption of goods and services? there needs to be some balance. emily: how does this play out if

google is aspiring to fully driverless., there is no steering wheel or brake pedals. and they are probably the most advanced moving towards that front, but it is still several years away. emily: we have spoken to the self who invented driving car and worked at google on this project for a long time, take a listen to what he had to -- about the constitution about the competition in this arena particularly for google, particularly when it comes to uber. sebastian travis and others have : been vocal about the fact that the self driving car came in a way that is threatening business. they are doing the right thing in investing in this technology, because he owns many companies right now, but if someone can offer the same services for half of the money, then he would be in trouble. emily: it is not only uber. you have tesla, traditional automakers investing heavily in this area. what makes google differentiated? mark: john talked about this this morning. we are backed by the most powerful computing company in the world. google i

emily: similar to what google has done? they are collecting their own did a using camera sensors. that can only take you so far. they are expensive and require manpower, but drones, they are smaller, under 50 pounds, can fly around and get into areas that stands cannot -- that vans cannot. faaier this year, they got approval. in august, faa stopped requiring exemptions and approval. they got approval in march. this allows them to fly drones around. the key is, they cannot go over buildings were people yet so they are limited to regions that are not regulated such as amazon using the u.k. for prime air testing. going to, the faa is relax their restrictions so apple will be able to do more. emily: does google use drones? mark: they have used drones to their skunk works program. it is a popular technique for surveying construction sites. you see lots of people flying drones with cameras over apple's campus to get a look at how far it has gone so far in terms of construction. maps and been lots of construction related applicati

google has been developing this technology for many years as part of the google x -- part of google xmarx, you are at the event earlier today. how does this change things for the self driving car unit? ark: they will probably have commercial unit same. -- soon. i think some of the delay is that alphabet is still figuring out logistics and what it is like to build up these standalone companies. emily: a lot of folks of been talking about how google has been working on this for years. uber beate were -- them. why has it taken so long? has sort of a self driving car, but what google is aspiring to is fully driverless, there is no steering will or break pedals, it is 100% autonomy. they are the most advanced in moving toward that front. ,mily: we spoke to sebastian who invented the self driving car and worked at google on this project a long time. take a listen to what he had to say about the competition in this arena. other companies have been vocal about the fact that the self driving car came and could be a threat to business. many customers, but if you can offer it for half the money,

it really is google and facebook are the big players. so that consolidation, which everyone thought would never happen, has happened. and, you know, it obviously has implications for our future. and -- >> host: is that necessarily bad? >> guest: i don't think it's necessarily bad, i just think we need to be aware of it and not pretend. one thing we shouldn't pretend is like, oh, you know, this will all be solved by competition, we don't have to worry, the internet is so competitive. someone new will come along. at&t lasted in monopoly form for 70 years. i think, what i believe from "master switch with," the previous book, is that monopolies themselves or powerful companies themselves go through a life, series of life stages. they often right when they achieve their monopoly or their power are in kind of a golden era. they have idealistic founders, they have very good products. mainly, they got there for a reason usually. google became what it is not because it had good advertising. it didn't even have advertising initially. 9 got there -

and the second is being a follower of facebook and google. think the way we differentiate it at aol and nobody liked content, we bought the tech crunch in the "huffington post." before people got into video, we got heavily into video. and then we're going to work with the yahoo team to do the global strategy and money team at verizon. but you should, i would leave tech crunch listening to our talk, thinking that we're thinking deeply, not about google and facebook, but about doing things for clients. social is facebook and google is search, you know, our company is going to be brand. and that could be the brand you wake up in the morning. it could be yahoo, it could be the brand you look at in the tech space, tech crunch or it could be the best brand to advertise a platform in the world. which might be aol 1 or one of the yahoo platforms. so i think we, we're not planning on competing with facebook and google. we're probably the only company in the internet space that partners with everyone. we partner with apple, amazon, google, facebook, sa

google, they have done drones through their skunk works program.it's a popular technique to really survey, construction sites do it. you can see a lot of people flying drones with cameras to try to get a look at how far it has gone so far in terms of construction. there's been lots of maps and construction related applications for drones in the past. adding someare also new features, indoor features for industry and strict tommy about these. >> beyond the drones, which is a long-term initiative to improve data, they're looking at at least two new features. one of the features would be indoor mapping. over the last couple of years, apple has been using wifi, to traffic,ap out high high-volume places like malls, airports, big museums, parks and such. this featureease as soon as next year, you will be able to navigate these places with the maps set up on your phone just like you can navigate walking. by now the google maps app will tell you, you need to get into these two lanes. now apple maps will be able to do that next year. emily: how optimistic a

on google.ot a flattering story. he made sure did he it early. 50% of the interest in elections, candidates, the gop race, the race for president, the race for senate happens by july. next time your campaign manager tells you, we really want to hold our money until after labor day, they are being very foolish. best thing about going early is you can define yourself as a candidate. what you should be doing is defining your opponent. two senate campaigns that defined their opponent early and never stopped defining their opponent was the todd young for senate campaign and the rob portman campaign. i mean, you can even see here that the opponents don't even have search ads up to counter the attack ads that were being run against them. i'm proud to say in every gop senate campaign, either the candidate or the nrsc were up to search ads for the opponent and the candidate. they defined themselves and their opponents. they didn't let anyone define them. the other really interesting thing about going ear

this is a google mobile phone using the google smart assistant.. those are becoming so much more sophisticated. so much smarter. for instance, when i ask, "who is aaron heslehurst?" it knows a good follow—up question — "how old is he?" that is smart artificial intelligence at work. but what kind of people actually buy this thing? they are buying these things. these voice controlled speakers are out there. it is not so much products people are going to buy. these are things that are out there. they are in the environment. voice control is becoming a thing. this is the stuff — when we were younger, we would watch the sci—fi films and they'd be on a spaceship talking to lex, or whoever. what amazes me is how blase we are about it. in star trek, there were devices where you could speak one language and it will come out in another. we've got that! we've got them. let's talk about driverless cars. there is a lot of controversy surrounding these. it feeds into the same theme — more intelligence being built into all sorts of devices, principally cars. we

, there by damaging google's prospects. it shouldn't be unreasonable given we're in a world where stocks can get crushed by all kinds of factors that have nothing to do with the fundamentals. as the stock comes down, you buy it back in increments. since we started with 100 shares, let's keep using increments of 25. if google comes back to 500 from 575, you buy 25 shares, then another 25 down 5%. that is if you had sold. you can even take your winnings this way and buy 25 more if it keeps bgoing lower. this might appear to be small potatoes, but over time your profits can add up. remember, you don't have to do anything. you don't have to anything. you can just hold it. that is fine with me. but people ask me what trading around a core position, and that's what it's about. a lot of people think that trading is incredibly exciting, and it request be. but if you're good at trading around a core position, it's right to be bored. they're nothing exciting about the plan i just laid out. all you're doing is watch the stock move, tr
