Zakir Hussain's life serves as a powerful reminder that true innovation springs from the harmonious interplay of tradition and modernity. His journey, a testament to the power of a holistic education, underscores the importance of nurturing both technical expertise and the liberal arts. Just as Zakir Hussain seamlessly blended Indian classical music with jazz and rock, we must strive to bridge the gap between the "fuzzies" and the "techies," fostering a culture of interdisciplinary collaboration.
The ethical development of AI, for instance, demands a multi-faceted approach. It requires not just the expertise of computer scientists and engineers, but also the insights of philosophers, ethicists, sociologists, and artists. By incorporating diverse perspectives and embracing the humanities, we can ensure that AI is developed responsibly and serves the greater good of humanity.
This is the core message I aim to convey at my upcoming SXSW panel: "The Ethics Bugfix: Upgrade Tech to its 'Liberal Arts' Version."

* 2003 study conducted by The Grief Recovery Institute -“Grief in the Workplace”
* “Shakti” the band
* 1976 album “A Handful of Beauty”, by Shakti
* “Shankar Mahadevan, John McLaughlin, and Zakir Hussain’s Fusion Band Shakti Wins Best Global Music Album Award at the 2024 Grammys”
* Shivani Siroya’s tech platform “Tala”
Books referred
* Scott Hartley’s book - “The Fuzzy and the Techie”

I've always been drawn to the beauty of connecting disparate fields.
From the stage to the courtroom, from the realm of creativity to the world of practicality and logic, I've found that these seemingly unrelated fields often intersect in surprising ways.
Today, we explore this concept of interconnectedness, a theme that echoes through my life’s experiences.
We'll delve into the ways in which different disciplines can inform and enrich one another, and how this interconnectedness can lead to groundbreaking insights and innovative solutions.
