Comment by Sundar Pichai
CEO of Google and Alphabet
Look, I, I expect we will grow from our current engineering base even into next year, right. Because it allows us to do more. I think I think the opportunity space is also increasing. I just view this as making engineers dramatically more productive, getting a lot of the mundane aspects out of what they do, allowing them to spend on higher value added tasks. But that means it's an accelerator. People will be able to do more, which means maybe we will create new products and hence we will need more people, at least in the near term.Verified source (Jun 5, 2025)

Bloomberg’s result for the exact cited video URL reproduces this passage verbatim (“Look, I, I expect… at least in the near term”), attributes it to Sundar Pichai, and dates the page June 5, 2025. Independent transcripts of the same Bloomberg interview match the wording and attribution.

Disputed
Disputed: the TechCrunch source does not contain the submitted passage as one verbatim Sundar Pichai quote. It presents only the opening sentence as a direct quote, then paraphrases the rest as reporter narration about AI making engineers more productive and Pichai describing AI as an accelerator. Other coverage of the same Bloomberg interview also uses materially different wording, including current engineering base and making engineers dramatically more productive, so the submitted text appears to combine a real quote with paraphrase rather than preserve Pichai’s exact words.
