To state Amara's law, "We tend to overestimate the effect of a technology in the short run and underestimate the effect in the long run." With India's commitment to lead the AI ecosystem and the immense potential of our population, it is we who hold the agency to shape the future of work. And the future of India's tech landscape is promising. While AI would lead to some job losses it would create even more jobs and roles. At Vahan.ai we believe that human + AI collaboration would help individuals become greater than the sum of their parts.
