Google CEO Sundar Pichai forgot to unmute while discussing Kermit the Frog's performance on YouTube's Dear Earth series. This is the biggest example of what has happened to virtual meetings and zoom sessions since the majority of the corporate world began working from home due to the pandemic. The past year has seen countless zoom sessions and virtual meetings fail like this. In this work-from-home session, people saw and heard many things that should not be heard like this.
One such virtual session with Sundar Pichai, CEO of Google's Parent Alphabet, and Kermit the Frog, the Muppet character, is now in the news as part of YouTube's Dear Earth series. The CEO of the global search engine giant Google, which owns multiple remote connectivity platforms and apps, failed to mute at the beginning of the conversation. It is this news of his that is now taking over and washing the virtual world.
‘I can’t believe I’m talking to the CEO of Google and he’s silent,’ the Muppet character scoffed, to which Pichai apologized and then shared the video clip on his Twitter timeline. In it he wrote, 'Always remember to unmute'.
