A public notebook for becoming less confused.

Cheap Intelligence, Expensive Judgment is where I think in public about cheap intelligence and its second-order effects. The working thesis: intelligence is becoming abundant, but taste, courage, and judgment are still annoyingly scarce.

The essays are not meant to be final verdicts. They are attempts to catch a thought before it becomes consensus and starts wearing a blazer.

I studied computer science at PES University, spent 46 months as a software engineer at Oracle and Intuit, and am now an MBA candidate at IIT Bombay's Shailesh J. Mehta School of Management.

I like the part before consensus forms: when the product looks like a toy, the market looks too small, the workflow looks silly, and the obvious people are still busy being obvious somewhere else.

For conversations about AI, venture, product, Indian tech, strange markets, or books that ruined your month in a productive way: reveal email.
