What does 'CEO' mean in the age of AI? | Rohan Arya Gondi | TEDxOakridgeGachibowli
From leading India’s junior squash rankings to running complex simulations at Yale, Rohan Gondi has lived in two worlds: the discipline of sport and the unpredictability of science. In this talk, he reflects on the Paradox of Plenty—how abundance of choices, opportunities, and even information can overwhelm us, whether on the squash court, in a lab experiment, or in everyday decisions shaped by AI. Blending personal experience with insights from systems thinking and research, he explores how to stay focused, resilient, and authentic when faced with too much of everything. An Oakridge alumnus (CBSE 2024) and national-level squash champion, Rohan Gondi achieved a No.1 national ranking in the under-19 category. He now pursues biochemical engineering at Yale University while continuing his passion for squash.
