This talk explores the evolving relationship between artificial intelligence and humanity — and how balance, not dependence, will define our shared future. From the story of a shopkeeper refusing to use a calculator to the powerful synergy between humans and machines, Nipun reveals how AI can amplify creativity, productivity, and decision-making when guided by human ethics and emotion. Through real-world examples — a junior lawyer with AI, a college student using automation tools, a junior architect leveraging AI design — Nipun paints a vivid picture of what’s possible when humans and AI collaborate instead of compete.
