About this episode
The episode features Sanjay Rakshit discussing the current AI landscape, addressing misconceptions and emphasizing the practical use of AI for business leaders.
In this episode, Bhairav and Alan bring in AI practitioner Sanjay Rakshit to unpack what’s really going on with artificial intelligence – beyond the noise, hype, and fear. They explore what AI actually is (and isn’t), why no one is truly an “AI expert” yet, and how founders and business leaders should think about AI as a power tool rather than a magic replacement for people. The conversation ranges from: - The history and evolution of AI and why it suddenly “caught fire” with ChatGPT. - How hype distorts reality for founders, investors, and even universities. - How to differentiate between genuine practitioners and people who are just one chapter ahead of you. - Why AI augments good practitioners instead of replacing them – and what that means for developers, doctors, and small businesses. By the end, you’ll be less intimidated by AI, more skeptical of big promises, and clearer on how to use it intelligently in your business.
