A post says Indian CEOs in U.S. tech were chosen to run money machines, not fix messy change

- The post argues that the trajectory of Indian CEOs in American tech looks bleak, naming Sundar Pichai, Arvind Krishna, Shantanu Narayen, and Satya Nadella.
- Its core claim is not about ethnicity but about how these leaders were selected to run “money machines,” which may no longer be enough in a period of slower, messier change.
- The attached excerpt specifically criticizes Google’s process-heavy management culture and says Pichai has not fixed the bureaucracy that former executives once called paralyzing.
- The author frames Nadella as the one still showing strong instincts, especially in relation to OpenAI.
