The narrative around AI and its impact on jobs, even entry level jobs is slowly beginning to change. AI will create new opportunities and the best companies will go for them.

I have changed my mind on how AI will impact jobs in America. Previously, I believed AI would replace many entry level roles typically filled by young employees. The technology would then work its way up the organization and eventually reduce the total number of jobs in a

My current mental model basis what I am seeing around me and at InfoEdge in all our verticals - Naukri, 99acres, Jeevansathi and Shiksha. 1) AI is fundamentally deflationary for businesses. 2) When the cost of intelligence drops toward zero, the cost of doing many things drops with it. 3) Everyone becomes more productive but no one stays differentiated for long. 4) The natural outcome? Price compression. Margin pressure, Commoditization. 5) We’ve seen this with the internet, cloud, SaaS. AI is doing it to cognition itself. But this is only half the story. 6) AI is deflationary for existing markets and expansionary for new ones The big mistake 7) Using AI just to do the same things cheaper. That’s a race to the bottom. 8) The real question is, What becomes possible now that was previously impossible? Three ways I see AI creating real advantage 1) Solving problems that were too expensive to solve or not solvable earlier 2) Serving customers who couldn’t be served before 3) Delivering experiences and quality that wasn’t possible to deliver before In other words Don’t just lower costs. Expand the market. Because when capabilities commoditise , value shifts to, – Distribution and Customer Relationships – Brand – Trust – Proprietary data – Ecosystems The winners in the AI era won’t be the most companies which are the most efficient. They’ll be companies with the best imagination

A voice that could do it all. Playful, seductive, soulful, timeless. A song for every mood and every generation. From Dum Maro Dum to Abhi Na Jao Chhod Kar to In Aankhon Ki Masti to Parde Mein Rehne Do, so many favourites. 80 years and 12000 songs. Rest in peace Asha ji. Truly the end of an era.

We now know what joy looks like! It is in the parents' eyes, the quiet emotion in their smiles and the anticipation in every step onto campus. A moment that marks the beginning of a shared dream. #Convocation2025

I say this to every parent and student who is aspiring to be at IITs. @PlakshaUniv is one of the best options that emerged in the past few years. If you are a tech enthusiast, and aspirational, it must be a part of your UG consideration set. Congrats @hitobs , Aakash and every person who was a part of this journey.

At the Plaksha convocation yesterday there were hundreds of us with our personal cameras taking pictures, an official cameraman with pro gear, a videographer on the ground and yes a drone to take aerial shots. A reminder that the relationship between technology and jobs is rarely straight forward. Is technology going to take away jobs or reshape them ?

What an amazing day at Plaksha. It was our first UG convocation. Like they say if you can dream it you can do it. The journey started with a few of us in 2016 and went through its ups and downs like any startup esp during covid. A big thank you to all my fellow cofounders, our donors, our Chancellor Dr Shankar Shastri who helped develop the idea with some of us over a few dinners in 2017, our VC - Dr Rudra Pratap, faculty members, the non academic staff and management and last but not the least - the students and parents who trusted us when there was nothing. Miles to go but we are well on our way to build a world class futuristic tech university out of India.

Seems like Specialist jobs are growing much faster than the overall job market. AI/ML roles, High tech design and clinical research are leading the charge. Here’s what the latest data from the naukri data science lab shows 🧵👇
