#140 Revolutionizing Search with Privacy ft. Sridhar Ramaswamy, Co-founder of Neeva, Venture Partner at Greylock

In #140, futurists hear from Sridhar Ramaswamy, Co-founder of Neeva and Venture Partner at Greylock. Sridhar unpacks the need for Neeva, a search engine that scrounges through information in personal files and on the web without showing advertisements or compromising (or profiting off of) user data. His ad-free search engine, as he puts it, aims to "do right by the customer" and offer full security through any searches. Ironically, he is the fomer Google Ad Chief, and he discusses his change in mindset that led him to be the 'ads guy creating an ads-free company'. In this podcast, Sridhar also dives into his position at Greylock and plays a quick-fire round of overrated/underrated where he judges avocado toast, Tesla, Amazon and Bitcoin!
