It was interesting to see that the idea I had proposed in my blog on moral imperatives of AI about reskilling workers displaced by AI showed up in the policy discussions of India’s finance minister. In my most recent keynote for PMI Chapter of Gujarat, India, the same question came up again – will my…
Obituaries of Generative AI or artificial intelligence in general have started trickling in across the media. This article in Fast Company predicts the onset of AI winter for the reasons that are typical in the early phase of any technology transition. Those of us who saw the boom-and-bust or hype-and-disillusionment cycle of the Internet would…
All of a sudden, every company is an AI company! People who, a year ago, would have mistaken the acronym ‘LLM’ to be another flavor of ice-cream claim to be developing foundation models. When you start scratching the surface, their responses would put ChatGPT’s hallucinations to shame. I don’t blame them. I saw similar behaviors…
The decline came faster than anyone would have imagined. The recent reports of ChatGPT getting dumber raise concerns and, more importantly, should give pause to all who are rushing to adopt AI without doing readiness assessment and feasibility study. There is a lot of noise and recycled information floating around. In the last one month…
In my short story AI.GOV, I posit – no intelligence will ever surpass that of its creator. ChatGPT, and other generative AIs, have not been able to change my opinion yet. The hue & cry and pleas to form some legislation to limit or ban further development in AI has more to do with corporate…
In spite of 1000 leaders and researchers begging everyone to pause on AI, it continues to advance at an unprecedented pace.

Since the launch of ChatGPT, the world has gone bonkers over the future of humanity and artificial intelligence (AI). The narrative, the fear and the hype have reached the level of absurdity that we see whenever a pivotal technology captures public attention. I call ChatGPT the ‘Netscape moment’ for AI. [Bias filter] I am not…
Since the stay-at-home orders and curfews around the world took effect to fight the pandemic, a lot of articles have surfaced delivering death kneel to ‘work-at-work’ model. The market has happily responded by accelerated stock price growth and valuations of the companies that support remote working. So, will this lead to a crash in commercial…
During my career at Intel, one of the misunderstanding most managers had was that employees in the same role were easily transferrable; especially in roles that did not require deep business or technical knowledge; like project and program manager, first line manger, UI/UX designer and others. This assumption would make restructuring or reorganizations of the…
I was lucky enough to learn very early in my career that it’s all about positioning! I didn’t like it then and I don’t like it now; but you cannot live in denial and still expect stellar results. As I grew in my career I realized the truth behind this advice I got and why it…
