Unveiling the Secrets How Does Generative AI Work.pdfSam H
At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.

8. Smart world
A smart world is out there, cutting across
generations and geographies, horizontals and
verticals, driven by technology, willing to
connect and listen, see and study, the work of
domain experts and entrepreneurs.
It is also open to be inspired and join hands.
12. Story begins
• Even while advising budding entrepreneurs to focus
on identifying the right mix of skill-set in their cofounders, Shiva cautions them about some of the
common pitfalls, in this brief interaction
withYourStory.
• Read on the Q&A with S. Shivakumar, CEO, iSource
Solutions, in which he also narrates his
entrepreneurial journey, and talks about his recent
expansion in the US and India.
13. Q: First, your story, Shiva, as an
entrepreneur.
• I attribute my entrepreneurial adventure to
my father, a small-time grocery store
merchant, and my unfortunate (injury) sports
career. From childhood he involved us in all his
trading endeavours. My attempt to become a
professional sportsperson and play basketball
taught me leadership traits and the never-saydie attitude.
14. Story of growth
• Before iSource, I tried my hands with several
IT, dotcom, HR consultancy and related
businesses. iSource was born during the early
stages of the BPO boom in India, in 2004. We
have grown to 200-plus people with 4 offices
in India and 2 offices in the US.
15. Q: About the recent expansion in the US,
and India.
• We realised the importance of the US local partner
and worked diligently to win the trust of potential
partners. We partnered with a leading healthcare
accounting and advisory firm, and incorporated a
joint venture company in Florida with local sales and
support staff. It worked like magic, and we bagged $1
million worth of contracts in a short span of 2
months, and are working on a $5 million goal before
the end of this year.
16. US, India
• We are looking to repeat this success in the Midwest
through similar partnership ventures with
established local partners in Chicago and Missouri.
• In India, we have expanded our operations in
Thiruvananthapuram Technopark to attract the
talent pool in Kerala. Our Coimbatore and Madurai
branches are training a large pool of talent which will
be inducted into our workforce soon.
17. Q: On the women workforce.
• Empowering women is the need of the hour.
We have been employing an increasing
number of women in our offices. We provide
free training (on the US healthcare revenue
cycle management) at our branch offices
located in the Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities.
18. Q: Your advice to entrepreneurs.
• Budding entrepreneurs should focus on identifying
the right mix of skill-set in their co-founders.
• Marketing cannot be outsourced. Don’t try to ignore
this.
• Raising funds cannot be done simply by hiring the socalled consultants and paying them. Avoid hiring
consultants to raise funds. Do the right PR exercise to
attract investors and make money chase you, not the
other way.
20. Comments
Ashvin Bhatt · Software Engineer at Persistent
Systems
• Overall nicely tied up. Heading of the article

Adhithya Vignesh · Technical

• Thanks for the motivation and knowledgeable
insights.

• Activate your phone recorder
• Speak into your phone for 30 seconds about
your work, startup, successes, takeaways,
plans
• Share it with someone who can give you
feedback
• Feel free to mail the audio clip (or, a rerecorded clip for a minute, later) to me
25. Another exercise
•
•
•
•
•
•
Think in tweet length
Assemble thoughts into sentences
Put sentences together in paragraphs
Gather paras into a page
Use visual guides, graphic relief
Put yourself in the shoes of the
reader, listener
27. Once upon a time…
• Identify stories about your work that can be
told again and again, with different pegs, to a
variety of audience, at varied lengths, suiting
the mood, taste, culture.
• Borrow stories and acknowledge them, retell
stories and relate them.
