Time for nasscom deeptech's flagship #FutureForge! See you there Oct 16-17th. With #skilldev being a major focus, I have had the opportunity to gather many a challenges & roadmaps from over a dozen campuses this year alone. Keen to connect the dots with the #Thoughtleaders shares. For instance, RV engg leaders were keen to explore how best they could #productize #commercialise their #patents #inventions from over the years. Ramaiah's principal had mentioned about how with the conventional campus #placements #jobs having reduction to 20-30%, their expectation of newer #entrepreneurship #opportunities filling-up those. And yes there are many #deeptech #startups like Agnikul & others who have exciting opportunities - in Avionics, Supply Chain, AI, the founder's office - to name a few. Can an early & even more agile industry & academia engagement address many of these? Along with #Skilldevelopment & #GlobalMarketAccess, if you're keen on #ElectricVehicles #CleanMobility #Energy #Sustainability #AI #Saas #BharatTech #ESDM #Aerospace #Defence #Spacetech #Health #Retail #Wellbeing #CircularEconomy #Foodtech #VR #AR #IoT #NetZero #Decarbonization #GreenTrade #FinancialServices #Credit opportunities, happy to engage.

We live more on a URL than in IRL. We have a duty as a digital citizen. On a recent podcast, Manoj Deshpande Neha Deshpande and I discussed digital civics - the rights and duties of a digital citizen, with a strong focus on good behavior and responsibilities. That discussion was all about extracting good civic behaviors from everyday life like being good to your neighbors, keeping your vicinity clean, showing respect, etc., and drawing a parallel to behavior on the internet. But the nature of the internet itself requires a new framework that looks at all the nuances of chatting and sharing, gaming, phone use, scams, misinformation, etc. To address that, I've extended a new psychological framework loosely based on original work done by Estelle Clements https://lnkd.in/dSx2qUzu

I recently watched Naval Ravikant on The Ranveer Show (BeerBiceps Media World Private Limited), and it reminded me of the powerful lessons from his book The Almanac of Naval Ravikant: A Guide to Wealth and Happiness. His approach to wealth, happiness, and success is timeless and even more relevant in today’s fast-paced tech world. Here are my top takeaways: 1️⃣ 𝗪𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 = 𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗼𝗺: True wealth isn’t about accumulating money—it's about gaining control over your time. Create systems that allow you to work on what you love, with people you admire. 2️⃣ 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰 𝗞𝗻𝗼𝘄𝗹𝗲𝗱𝗴𝗲: Identify your unique skills that feel like play to you but look like work to others. AI can’t replace creativity, strategic thinking, or deep expertise. 3️⃣ 𝗟𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲: Scale your impact through tools and systems. In today's digital world, code and media can exponentially increase your influence. 4️⃣ 𝗟𝗼𝗻𝗴-𝗧𝗲𝗿𝗺 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴: Build relationships and play long-term games with people you trust. Compound interest applies to both money and relationships. 5️⃣ 𝗛𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝗦𝗸𝗶𝗹𝗹: It’s internal, not tied to external success. Learn to enjoy the process, not just the outcomes. As AI and automation continue to disrupt industries, these principles are more relevant than ever. Let’s focus on mastering ourselves, building trust, and creating value that lasts. 💡 For more context on it, check out my recent blog post here: https://vinitks.com/naval/ #Leadership #PersonalGrowth #NavalRavikant #Wealth #TechIndustry #AI #Mindset #VKSContent #Naval

🌟 Nandan Nilekani’s Bold Vision for AI in India! 🌟 At the recent Build with AI summit in Bengaluru, Nandan Nilekani emphasized a new direction for Indian AI companies. Rather than competing in creating large language models (LLMs), he urged us to leverage existing models to solve real-world problems effectively. 🔑 Key Takeaways: Focus on Data: Building the right infrastructure to collect and utilize quality data is crucial. Use Case Capital: Aim to position India as the global hub for practical AI applications, demonstrating our unique strengths. Empower Small Businesses: Decentralizing AI access can empower startups across Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities. Nilekani’s insights encourage us to pivot from competition to collaboration. Let’s transform this vision into action! 🚀 #AI #NandanNilekani #infosys #Innovation #DataStrategy #TechForGood #India #BuildWithAI

Gen AI makes search better. Search, in turn, makes LLMs better. To unlock the full potential of gen AI, organizations need to ground model response in what we call “enterprise truth” — fresh, real-time data and enterprise systems. The resulting RAG solution is powered by search, where the quality of the grounding is dependent on the quality of search that powers it. This blog tells you how.

Thanks to The Economic Times for capturing our interactive media thesis for the years ahead. As we crystal ball gaze into the future, there has been no better time to invest in India. In the last few years, we have seen the market mature across key vectors - propensity to pay, quality of talent, capital inflows, and exits. This represents meaningful upside for founders and investors in this space over the coming decade. With the incredible shifts in tech, media and gaming, there are some exciting times ahead! 🚀 https://lnkd.in/gTfYa3Kw

Eric Schmidt's recent interview at Stanford University got lot of attention due to his comments on Google's WFH policy. He mentioned Google is effectively slipping in AI because of their WFH policy. There were lot of people taking sides in this conversation and bashing WFH vs In-office. I would have expected his interview to start healthy discussion around this topic rather than continuing the long running debate on this. Unfortunately, we live in an environment where everyone need to take sides rather than finding positives on both sides. I have worked both in WFH environment (which everyone is forced to during the Covid lockdown) and in-office environment equally over my career so want to write my thoughts on this topic. I have benefitted immensely during the initial days of my career working closely with team in office and having face to face interaction. It certainly offers easier collaboration and provides opportunity for spontaneous discussion(water cooler/tea time). The thing I hated most about working in office is the commute time and the associated stress it adds to the daily life. If you don’t have a team or leader that understands the necessity to have meetings you might be stuck in unproductive/unwanted meetings while in office.    I enjoy the clear separation between work and personal life offered in the office work environment, where you have the chance to log off after your work. Unless you set clear timing/work space in WFH, it is really difficult to separate the two and end up mixing both. WFH offers better work-life balance since there is no commute time and can plan your day better.   But I personally think Hybrid model offers the best of both world and might be what the future workplace would look like, I doubt if we are ever going back to full time in office model or fully remote Covid model. I certainly enjoy the days I am in office and enjoy collaborative discussion with my team. I plan my week to maximize collaboration while in office and do more of my individual planning work during the days I work from home.    I have benefitted from working in all the models and each offers valid arguments to be the de-facto model for a company. Every company/team should try out the different models and choose what works for them. I have seen successful companies in each of the working categories, it is because of the team and the model they choose which worked for them.   It would be great if we have productive discussions to understand why someone chooses a particular model and better understand why it works for a particular team or a company so we can learn from it.

While everyone is talking about AI and its potential to transform businesses, there will be significant job losses in the medium term, leading to chaos. Geoffrey Hinton's article highlights not only the risk of job losses but also the threat of extinction. Uncontrolled development and use of AI could have negative long-term effects, similar to how social media has been used to spread hatred and negativity. Government intervention will be necessary at the right time to manage these risks.
