My TEDx Talk
Everyone's watched The Terminator and similar movies where AI enslaves humanity or determines our existence to be what remains in it's way towards a 'perfect' world. With the truck loads of AI enabled products flooding the market every second, the paranoia has been higher than ever.. but is it really that scary as the movies show it to be ? Well here are my views on the 'Terminator fears'.

Braggi Shopping & Medical SlotsSolo Founder & Product
Mar 2020 \u2192 Jan 2021During the lockdown, marketing is difficult, and getting work done remotely has been equally difficult, so I started working on a new project.
