Elon Musk gives one word reply to Sundar Pichai's post on Google parent's quarterly earnings

Google's parent, Alphabet, reported quarterly results that exceeded expectations recently. The company reported earnings of $28.2 billion, or $2.31 per share, during the second quarter, which is a 19 per cent increase from the same period last year.

Revenues increased by 14 per cent to $96.4 billion. Soon after the earnings call, CEO Sundar Pichai shared a post on X, saying, "Just got off the earnings call - great quarter and it was our (and my) 40th call as Alphabet. August will mark 10 years since we announced Alphabet. Been thinking about the incredible growth in our new businesses since then - Cloud, YouTube, Play, Subscriptions etc. To give a sense of progress, in 2015 all of Alphabet’s revenue added up to $75B. YouTube and Cloud alone ended 2024 at an annual run rate of $110B.”

Tesla CEO Elon Musk had a one word reply to Pichai's post, commenting, "Impressive".



Pichai in return, replied with a folded hand emoji.

Earlier this month, Pichai reached another key milestone by becoming Alphabet's longest-serving CEO. He joined Google in 2004 as the head of product management and development. Over the years, he led the company to focus on several innovative products and services.

Pichai became Google CEO in 2015, and then, when Google became a subsidiary of Alphabet Inc., he took on the additional role of CEO for the parent company.
