Predictably, he is asked about generics (54 mins in). His reply is very clear: "There are no plans for generics. I said we're going to leave the language; we're done."

By "the language" he means Go major-version-1. There will be no generics in Go 1, that's clear. The path is wide open for Go 2, though.
