Cracking the Code on AI in Business: What We Learned! 🔥

Yesterday’s meetup was a deep dive into how AI is reshaping the business landscape. Yash Shah broke down some fascinating insights that really got us thinking.

Key Takeaways:

- Autopilot vs. Copilot: AI is either doing the work for you or helping you do it better. Think Alexa vs. ChatGPT. Both are game-changers, but in different ways.

- Verticalized AI: It’s not just about having AI; it’s about fine-tuning it for specific industries or even individual clients. The days of generic solutions are fading fast.

- AI-Native Experiences: The real disruptors will be companies that build with AI from the ground up, not just retrofitting old systems.

- Data is King: Accurate data is the fuel for AI. If your data’s off, your AI won’t hit the mark either.

- Distribution Challenges: Even with AI, getting your product in front of the right audience is tougher than ever.

It’s clear—AI is here to stay, but the winners will be those who can think strategically about how to leverage it. Thanks to eChai Ventures and GVFL Limited for hosting the event.
