That was one of the very best talks I have attended in the last few years. Vikesh Pandey's problem-centric approach to working with Financial Services clients was an eye-opener for me. Instead of telling our business clients how cool AI is and what it can do, we should focus on the real-world business problems that AI can solve. The client's problem comes first; a story about yet another cool AI solution is just a means to help the business. #AI #business #finance #financialservices

What I love most about Tau Net and Agoras - Enabling Large-Scale Collaboration   Tau Net and Agoras are pioneering the infrastructure required for true large-scale discussions and decision-making. When thousands or even millions of people try to collaborate - whether for governance, business strategy, or problem-solving - things often get messy. Voices get lost, dominant opinions take over, and consensus feels impossible. Tau Net flips this script by letting everyone logically express their preferences, with Tau Language transforming those inputs into real-time, executable actions based on actual consensus. It’s a smarter, more structured way to tackle complex discussions. Take climate change, for example. Typically, the conflicting interests of scientists, governments, and businesses make decisions painfully slow. But with Tau Net, each group can input their priorities using logical statements. The platform processes everything, removes contradictions, and finds common ground, quickly turning input into actionable solutions. This level of collaboration isn’t currently possible without Tau. Traditional systems can’t handle the complexity, and debates got stuck in bias or miscommunication. But Tau’s breakthroughs in logical theory, brought to life through Tau Language, will make it all finally work. Once launched, Tau will process user input into clear, actionable steps without needing human intermediaries. I’ve been following Tau for a while, and I’m confident it’s going to set the new standard for large-scale collaboration, turning fragmented input into solid, consensus-driven actions. It’s a tool that’s about to make a big impact across all industries.

There are 100s of AI events in the Bay every week - and one thing was common. Most (not all!) of them discuss tech advancements or general networking but were missing depth on other fronts. Given how rapidly, this space is changing, Shipra Agarwal Kanoria and I were thinking of getting a bunch of folks together to go beyond (think of this as a monthly supper club where we learn and grow together!) Join us for an inaugural *AI Horizons* roundtable with The Product Folks and WestBridge Capital to discuss how to think about responsible GenAI deployment and building agentic AI systems.  🗓 30-05-2024 📬 Invite-Only Event Takeaways from this event : ✨ Exclusive Insights: Share and learn best GenAI practices from fellow builders and operators ✨ Network with other GenAI builders: No, not exchanging LinkedIn links. Rather meet and connect with fellow builders, operators, and founders who are at the forefront of GenAI innovation. ✨ Forward-Thinking Strategies: Learn about the latest approaches on building successful products Just setting expectations: These will be *tiny* gatherings so we can go deeper on the conversations Let me know what you think, small form in the comments in case you want to join in :)
