14. Insights
Dr. Kalika Bali
There is a lack of data for Indian
languages. There is no difference
in the technology that is used for
enabling different language
adoption among applications
today. There are a lot of people
who are now working towards
collecting data sets for various
Indian languages.
Ramanan Ramanathan
Never in the history of the world
has AI made as much sense as it
does now because of its ability to
process large volumes of data,
capture it, communicate it and be
able to act upon it in a powerful
way.
Data can become a cheap asset
that can give us big returns if
analysed correctly.
There are people who get visuals,
there are people who read
numbers better, and there are
people who read data narratively.
Mohan Ramaswamy
Next level of development (Urban
development) needs efficiency,
not just economically, but in terms
of time and efforts. Old vehicles
will be eventually replaced with
EVs. It is all going to be
software-based and connected
G S Madhusudhan
Entrepreneurship in India has a
cultural problem. Societal norms and
stigma take a toll on young
entrepreneurs. We need more family
and societal support and less stigma
for deep-tech innovations.
Ganesh Swami
There is no demand for NFTs, only
2000 wallets are creating NFTs back
and forth. 2K people, a few hundred
NFTs, the numbers are not
supporting the thesis. There’s a lot of
hype.

Sandeep Shukla
Bitcoin-related crimes are less than
5%. Cybercrimes are not happening
rampantly in the ecosystem, the fear
of them is more.
As a holder of stocks, the outlook is
as an investment and little leeway to
voice your opinion and it being
heard. In crypto, buying tokens gives
you not only a stake in the project
but also a platform to give your
inputs and have them heard.
