emily: you spent a long time at google. google is blocked in china, apps are blocked in china. is there a way forward for google in china? hugo: i don't know. it is a tricky issue. i do believe that it may not be the end of it. i personally don't think that it is the end of the road for google in china. purely thinking from the point of view of how useful google is and the fact that people in china are universities, study abroad, they depend heavily on google even despite the fact that it is blocked. that i just think at the end of the day someone is going to figure out a way to solve whatever issues exist to bring all of this innovation to the people in china. emily: how satisfied are you with the pace of innovation at android? hugo: i'm quite happy. i think especially because i understand how hard it is to make progress. when you are supporting hundreds of partners around the world, i think android is entering a new phase by expressing itself through some of the different screen and different types of devices. there is basically an entirely new and completely unexplored galax

the google one is very smart. it has the ability to, you know, use aerodynamics to travel for maybe tens, maybe even hundreds of miles. it is quite difficult to hover in place and dangle a package down on a string and then land equally and vertically. i love the fact that google and amazon are doing this with different approaches. you cannot ask for two better companies to be innovating in this space. emily: does amazon or google win? is there a place for both of them? chris: totally a place for both of them. emily: what about facebook? facebook are buying drone companies as well. a different mission to connect the world. is it realistic? chris: absolutely. google has also bought a drone company to do the wifi in connecting the developing world. there you are competing with satellites on one level and balloons. google has mentored an internet balloon project. emily: what's a better way? balloons or drones? chris: the great thing about balloons is they stay up for weeks on end. their natural instinct is to float. a

you sell to google for $3.2 billion. tony: i think the first decision was should we allow google to invest in the company? that was 2.5 years earlier than the actual acquisition. through building a relationship and getting to know larry and sergey and various people inside the team, we got more and more comfortable with the executives and a lot of the people we were working through that, the investment process, as well as the preceding two and a half years. so we have been dating for a while, in a way. we were dating before we got married for two-and-a half years, so we really got to know each other. the final part was the last three months, was really this -- maybe we should get engaged discussion. should we get engaged? do you want to have kids? where do you want to live? what would we call the kids and what would our last names be? it was all of those little details before we said we were going to get married. emily: was there any part of you that said, "god, i don't know, this is my baby. maybe it could be bigger." r

never has been since the emergence of google because google changed our behavior around how we use the internet. yahoo! does not do anything like that anymore. emily: mark, not a single must use product. as a yahoo! investor, how do you respond to that? mark: i actually don't disagree. m's point is right on. the market is valuing an asset we see value in at zero. zero is a good price to pay for something. we invested early in alibaba. the yahoo! japan stake and the olive bobbitt -- alibaba stake are worth a lot of money. stub and weyahoo! think the private equity guys will buy the asset and do what should have been done a number of years ago, have more of financial engineering approach, a dealmaking approach to that business. obsolete technology is a real problem in the valley today. emily: the core business is valued at less than zero, some valuing it at $2 billion. om: marissa mayer should leave this in the hands of the board. competence.heir they are equally culpable in the mess which is yahoo!. this board, the previous boards, they have let this status of going nowhere continue for

both the internet industry, the googles, the yahoo!s, and microsofts that it wanted to control, continue to retain their control. but you had the traditional media world, the studios and labels and others, wanting to retain control of distribution. they were attacking us, accusing us of not doing the right things around copyrights, when, in reality, we were building more tools than any of our competitors, and more policies from day one than anyone else to deal with all these problems and actually eventually create solutions for them where they could monetize them. the music industry earns billions of dollars off of youtube on an annual basis now. but with all these people looking at us, and us just struggling to keep things up and running, we had no other choice, really, at the end of the day, to be acquired by someone. for us, we were lucky enough to be acquired by google, who, in my mind, kind of took a chance on us. and that, really, youtube would probably not be here today or what it is today without their support. so i am really t

at google headquarters. it's 11:00 a.m. on wall street, and "sidewalk alley" is live. ♪ ♪ >>> welcome to "squawk alley" for a tuesday. welcome as always. jon and kayla. kale aa having just interviewed john stone -- ed lee joins us as well, managing editor of re/code. busy day. markets getting a little volatility. we're getting auto sales all through the morning. right now we have breaking news from toyota. phil lebeau has that in chicago. phil. >> carl, tale of two automakers. let's start first with toyota. an increase in november auto sales. well above expectations. up 12.4%. the edmond's.com estimate was for an increase of 4.9%. the best black friday sales in eight years for toyota. that's what was driving strong numbers last month. meanwhile, we've also gotten a peek at what november was like for volkswagen. we knew it would be bad, but i'm not sure people were expecting it to be this bad. sales plunged 24% last month. more than double what most people were expecting in terms of a decline. what was driving it? a drop

eric: they work with google and google maps. those are some of the important ones. microsoft is a strategic investor. there are areas where uber is saying, we're such a big brand, big-name, all the companies want to partner with us. this is an early partnership with facebook. emily: i want to ask you one more question about this lawsuit. the ceo of uber was sued by a customer for price-fixing. what is going on here? eric: it's a little weird. i read it this morning. basically,travis has driven a number can -- an uber before. he is competing with all the other drivers who drive for uber, but uber is in the process of setting the price at which all uber drivers have to accept. the lawsuit is arguing, travis is price-fixing and making the other drivers compete with him and what they are charging people. that's how i understand the case. emily: does travis drive regularly? eric: i guess it doesn't surprise me that the ceo of uber is occasionally driving, but i'm not sure. emily: interesting. we'll have to see how that plays out. alex, eric, thank you both. the financial

mean for google? bill: what i see happening is two things. one, they have this thing called google express which i kind of see as a chaotic response to this problem. ok, well, we're going to make it possible to close the loop on a google transaction, but it is not set up in an optimal way. i have a hard time believing that that is anyway optimized at a level that makes economic sense. emily: do you think google is serious about delivery? what about instacart? it is being touted as a win-win for instacart and retailers, covering the last mile. target is trying it in minneapolis. does it have it locked down? bill: there are couple of questions about that situation that i do not know. one of them is how many people need that amount of care, you know? my wife is a huge fan of instacart. i have to constantly remind people that redband had remarkably high scores. everybody loved it until it went out of business. if you give the consumer more value than you charge them for, they will love you, too, which lea

google services. but technologies made advanced project and what one of the deficiencies we have is our input/output, our keyboard, our eyes, our nose, our mouth and ears are actually relatively slow. the body can never focus that fast. so if you have a chip in the brain, you can accomplish everything. >> rose: tell me wholes should be at my table. holmes, admire what she's doing. uber. >> rose: are they still primarily somehow tethered to a university like stanford? >> i think society still thinks this way, and universities are such a big thing and such an important thing that it gives you identity, it gives people a life-long identity. if you graduate from harvard or yale, you will always be a harvard or yale graduate. the thing we address at udacity is the many people who can't get in there, the people who, later in life, or the people who grew up in india, china or asia, who have no chance, no access. we never forget, we marvel about all great universities like m.i.t. and others, but 80 or% americ

emily: google is working on project loon and google fiber. what do you think of google's approach to connecting the world? mark: well, the thing is connecting everyone is going to be something that no single company can do by themselves. so i am really glad that they and a lot of other companies are working on this. internet.org is a partnership between a number of different technology companies and nonprofits and governments. and there are folks who are doing things that they are contributing to internet.org. there are companies that are doing things that are separate. that is going to be necessary, right? i mean, there is a lot of technology that is going to need to be developed in order to build -- in order to tackle all three of those major barriers that i talked about. you know, technical, making it so that everyone has a network near them. affordability, so that way the network is efficient. and social, making it so that people have the content that they need in order to want to get online and consume all this. so i am very positive on

i think with google from google's standpoint right now, it's a lot of -- it's a lot of take in terms of what you need, but there's certainly extending that into many, many areas, and i think it's impressive to watch. >> are you as worried about netflix as some have become over the last couple of days from the content cost? do you view that as an investment that's going to yield benefits? >> we have been concerned about netflix for and time, and that's not been good from a stock cost standpoint, but i still feel the work is there. i think the ability to connect content into these platforms is becoming much easier. it will give more choice to content providers. it will give more choice to consumers. i think how that content ultimately gets packaged and structured across these different platforms will mean that you'll have to continue to spend a lot on content if that's what your end goal is. >> you think you end up being a better programming because you know imperically what your users watch? >> when you start to look at the other platforms, amazon, google, facebook, and others, they h

google teaming up with ford. what is the market for this and how will it help those stocks in the company's bottom line? >>> the race to space getting another giant leap forward. elon musk, spacex hitting another historic milestone. a top astrophysicist is going to explain why this is so important for the space race and spacex? we're less than an hour to the closing bell. i'm liz mcdonald, let's start the "countdown." >> all right, we've got seven days of triple digit moves for the markets. the question is, will we see day eight today. the dow is up nearly 160 already. here's the deal we're hearing from wall street and the floor of the trading pits. you got to buckle up. this volatility does not seem to be going away any time soon. we've got oil up two straight days. the major averages up two straight days. all 10 of the s&p sectors are up, too. again and again you're going to hear this term. the new normal, but here's what bank of america and merrill lynch is just saying, this is news. they're talking about whip

reed: google releasing the most searched items of this year.marie: coming up, what did you google for? >> i am dana wagner and it is seen and it is underhanded. >> here is what is buzzing today, las vegas. >> the winner of the voice is jordan smith. >> jordan smith and team adam crowned the champion. emily ann robertson is second. the harry potter mover he -- movie series is over and here is a trailer for the prequel. >> yesterday a wizard entered new york. with the case full of magical creatures. and unfortunately, some have escaped. >> that is the first trailer of the harry potter spinoff. it's the basketball shot of the year from a mom in bloomington, minnesota. you can see that, she bounced it in underhanded from half-court. bounces and in. her daughter gets free tuition for a semester at her private school. now i man is doing his job at a recycling center. he saw something different. tony verandas spotted the kitten , saving its life. his supervisor came over and immediately became attached and adopted her. that is what is buzzing today. marie: google is out with the reed: google

>> google does not like it. google just wants the car to handle the whole function of driving. these new regulations california is proposing would have a human always ready to take the wheel. there would need to be a wheel. companies would be to file monthly reports on how the cars are behaving. it is a very cautious approach to regulating driverless cars that google does not like at all. emily: i've had this conversation with the inventor of the self-driving car who went on to found google x. it is referred to as the trolley problem. if a self-driving car stays on course, he could hit a school bus. if it veers off course, it kills the driver. how do they handle situations like that? >> that is another issue. these ethical issues. if your car is bearing down on a school bus full of children, should the robot decide to drive you off a cliff and kill the occupant of the car were hit the bus and kill the children? these are tough ethical decisions programmers will have to make choices on. it might take actual changes in law to address some of the stuff because right now it may be

guest: they needed the deal with google. they put tweet as a result of google search. it will have this carousel of things you have said. i could look on them individually. that increase traffic to twitter from normal people. they're trying to make twitter more accessible to people who don't have accounts. it has always been a problem. they making it easier to sign up and create followers. emily: what other things are we seeing jack dorsey do that matt really move the needle? are they -- is it possible to re-accelerate? guest: they have a marketing campaign. that tried to show people what twitter has on it. a lot people think that twitter is just a place for celebrities, politicians, and journalists. it kind of is. but there are ways that people who don't have publishing agenda can go on and consume media, so they are trying to let people know about that possibility. guest: any other product of diets? guest: many in the pipeline. they're reconsidering the 140 character count limit. they changed the favorite button on tweets to a heart. emily: i have been getting more h

that's google's policy and a few others. i'm kind of dedicated to making equipment that feeds into the concept of the car 100% of the time and a human can fall asleep and probably would be better off if they did so. >> when people ask you what the biggest engineering chal ebbing is, how do you -- what do you say to them? knowing you have to put it in terms that a lehman can understand. >> i don't see the technology as a barrier. i see the government as the barrier. you know, the government owns the roads right now. we're just trying to make a car that tries to dovetail into existing roads, and if the government doesn't want cars on there, then they're not going to be on there. i think if the government were to say, hey, you guys can have your own lane, go wild with technology, i think we can build a really interesting transportation system of the future. >> is that -- do you think the challenge is going to be on the local sort of municipal level, or is this more an issue for the feds? >> well, you know, i mean, we need some

google in search. emily: and yet, you argue for the last few decades, we have actually been in a tech slowdown. where are facebook and apple and google? have they not been innovative enough? peter: as a society, i would argue we have not done as much as we could have. you have had less innovations in energy and biotechnology, and not as many as we would like, transportation, we are not moving any faster. emily: one thing you tell aspiring entrepreneurs is don't copy mark zuckerberg and bill gates, why not? peter: the next mark zuckerberg won't be starting a social networking site, the next larry paige won't be starting a search engine, the next bill gates won't be starting an operating system, and so in some sense you cannot copy them because they did not copy somebody else. emily: you also suggest that they come up with one very important truth that very few people agree with you on. why is finding something that nobody agrees with you on the best way to get somebody to believe in you? peter: i think

the cofounder of google. anne: they started google in my sister's house. i could not avoid him because he was always there. we would be washing dishes and see them in the other room. they were just there. i used to hang out at google all the time. there was free food and my sister was there and it was fun. i got to know sergey. emily: what was that like? seeing on the frontline of google? anne: i think sergey and larry, they did not start it as they -- start it because they wanted money. they started it because they had the dream of having a world of information on their laptop. they could have sold the company and then be professors and life would've been good as well. they did things in their own way. i would complain to larry about the health care space and how much i felt like it was dysfunctional. he said, you're either part of the solution or part of the problem. that was a call to action. that was very much them. if it is bad, you fix it. emily: he was predisposed to parkinson's disease. that became a critical part of the story of 23andme and how yo

emily: how about google? mark: google have this very trippy, hippie, weird san francisco burning mans-style part. it was the under the sea event w ith jellyfish dancing. this is like -- google's founders are well known for making the trip out to burning man which is this annual hippie festival in nevada. this very much fit that kind of theme. the employees loved it. emily: and yahoo! -- i think this picture might win for the most awkward photo of the year. mark: extremely awkward. employees essentially lined up to take photos with marissa iser who, as you can see, pregnant. it' just looks strange. there is this weird white, silky scene with this couch. they also, like facebook, threw this roaring 1920's theme party which goes back to the era of access. excess. probably some parallels with silicon valley especially when yahoo! is not in the best position. emily: dropbox. mark: dropbox's party had this hip, indie band playing. trying to sort of convey this aura of coolness, which i think helped. dropbox is also

eric schmidt, chairman of google , what is a company like google to do? what is the middle ground? >> there are a few steps that are middle ground measures. at the end of the day, it's going to require public-private partnerships. you need people in the state department who are tracking violent extremism working closely in conjunction with analysts and individuals and companies like twitter and facebook. this is not something that can be solved by psy lowing their efforts -- siloing their efforts. these companies have tried to comply with government requests. at the end of the day, they do have some conflicting motivations. private companies have different incentives than the government, but everybody wants to keep people safe and not have a horrific attack like we saw in paris or in california. it's going to require a systematic organizational overhaul where we can work more closely and in greater coordination. maybe getting employees rotating in from the private sector and trying to make better connections between these two realms. emily: i understand you had your own sticky situ
