Floppy disks to LLMs. That's my career in four words.
I just sat down for a podcast on 30 years of Indian PR with @PaarulC for @PRmomentIndia, and it hit me how absurd the journey has been.
Then: a floppy disk, a screeching modem, a cyber café, and a prayer that the file uploaded before the paper closed.
Now: one prompt and the first draft writes itself.
The tools got infinitely better. Here's what scares me we got a little lazier.
Early in my career I was out meeting media 15 days a month. No shortcut, no dashboard. Just showing up, again and again. That's where relationship capital is built and you can't prompt-engineer your way to it.
Someone recently asked me, "How do we manipulate AI to talk about us?" Wrong question. You don't manipulate anything. You be genuine, you do the right thing, and the rest takes care of itself. We won a pitch last month for exactly that reason everything good about us was already out there in the open.
So here's my one prediction for 2030: AI will help decide almost everything. Which is precisely why the deeply human stuff, trust, relationships, showing up becomes your biggest competitive edge.
The more things change... you know the rest. 🙂

In elections, the first battle is not votes, it is recall. From chaiwala to Kadakku Purathu, slogans turn moments into movements.
Delighted to share my perspective with @PRmomentIndia on the evolving power of political messaging and the #electionresults
