Snowflake CEO and former Google SVP of Ads Sridhar Ramaswamy joins South Park Commons General Partner Aditya Agarwal to share his answer. Ramaswamy traces his journey from Google to founding Neeva, an ad-free search startup that shut down before the generative AI boom, to leading Snowflake through the AI era. He shares what defines great founders, what doomed Neeva, and why most software will lose its moat. Ramaswamy and Agarwal also explore the future of AI, what remains valuable in an age of AI-generated software, and the search belief Ramaswamy got wrong.
