Online users shared a made-up story about the Indian-born executive. The story originated in YouTube videos created with artificial-intelligence.

Sundar Pichai, the CEO of Alphabet Inc (parent company of Google ), is among a consortium that has bid more than £80 million for a London-based cricket team. The group is in the race for either the Oval Invincibles or London Spirit, teams that play in The Hundred tournament.

Sundar Pichai joins tech giants like Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, and Tim Cook at Donald Trump’s inauguration on January 20. This event is historic as it coincides with Martin Luther King Jr. Day, marking a notable overlap in presidential swearing-in ceremonies.
