About AI - this is how the world reacted....
First, it was - OMG! Applause!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
While trying hands-on - Wow! I'm the God with AI super power... 😇
While fine-tuning prompts - **spends 3 hours** - is this really that good? 😱
Once the romance is over - It's good, not great.. HI will prevail over AI. 🤯
Well, some AI enthusiasts met at GVFL Limited yesterday as part of eChai Ventures' AI meet up yesterday. A big shoutout to Yash Shah for putting together his thoughts in a comprehensive deck. Quite insightful.
Happy to see the enthusiasm around AI and some folks doing really epic work in this space. Here's to you guys:
Vinit B Yadav showcased how Veloxhire.AI can solve bulk hiring problem. Ketul Shah at Groundup.ai is making a formidable use case for industry application of AI and Amit Tiwari at ATSN AI is creating awesome chat application using AI.
Thanks Jatin Chaudhary for putting together this meetup.

Recapping a few highlights:
Aditya Vikram believes nothing succeeds like success. People want to be on the winning team.
➤ Helping people in the hour of need (start of Covid) by working on contactless deliveries at Amazon was gratifying. Though it also meant cutting short paternity leave.
➤ If India eCommerce market is growing by 100, Meesho is growing by 65.
➤ Co-signs what his mentor would say, "You become a seasoned product professional - not by building products but by shutting them down"
➤ If there was a product he may have liked to work upon, it'd be eSports FIFA ⚽
➤ Hiring at Meesho for his team 📢
Alok Agrawal says he joined Microsoft because of his wife. He may have been a Chef or a Cricketer in a parallel world 🌎
➤ Loved working on a product that helped people in the refugee camps. Contributing to the social impact it had felt fulfilling.
➤Eye popping numbers - MS Teams grew from 18 mn to 200 mn users during Covid. This growth was massively fuelled by Android phone users in the emerging markets.
➤ Being a PM is not as sexy as it sounds. Go for it if you like it while knowing that it's just a role.
➤ Hiring alert: His team at Mailmodo is hiring talent.
Sumit Malpani shares a hack from his work at Porter. "Follow Your User" and think of your user occupying a chair in every meeting that you sit in.
➤ During Covid, worked on the Ola Emergency product for people in essential services. Contributing to the impact it had was gratifying.
➤ Worked on Moj for Creators and built various Gamification modules for Creators at ShareChat, acquiring ~200k high quality creators, improving creator retention by 8pp. Reference reading: https://lnkd.in/gveZWpfw
➤ If there was a product he may have liked to work upon, it'd be Delhi Metro Rail Corporation Ltd. because it is a complex product with a great user experience. It is accessible, reliable and frictionless. From its colour coding to safety-related nudges, visual cues to clear instructions, everything adds to user delight.
It's a wrap! Do share resources - books, podcasts, newsletters, courses, platforms and communities that are helping you with your journey as a product professional. ✨
