HOW AI IS TRANSFORMING THE WORLD
Even in todays world, most people are not very familiar with the concept of artificial intelligence (AI). As an illustration, when 1,500 senior business leaders in the United States were asked about AI, only 17 percent said they were familiar with it.1 A number of them were not sure what it was or how it would affect their particular companies. They understood there was considerable potential for altering business processes, but were not clear how AI could be deployed within their own organizations. Despite its lack of general familiarity, artificial intelligence…

The India unit of early-stage venture capital firm Antler has launched Antler India Residency, a cohort-based initiative for ambitious entrepreneurs. It will bring together roughly 60-70 people with backgrounds in business and engineering for an eight-week curriculum. Antler India would allow participants to meet their prospective cofounders during the residency. One of the biggest reasons why firms fail, according to Rajiv Srivatsa, the fund’s partner, is the inability to meet one’s cofounder. Antler expects 8-10 companies to emerge from each cohort, with each receiving $270,000 in exchange for a 9%…
