In this candid deep dive, I sit down with Netflix Co-CEO Ted Sarandos to unpack the company’s remarkable journey from a DVD-by-mail service to a global streaming giant. We revisit Netflix's early battle with Blockbuster, the bold pivot to streaming, the company’s plans for India, and how they cracked the code on turning binge-watching into a universal habit.What was interesting for me was how he spots the next phenomenon before the world catches on. For anyone in media, tech, or entrepreneurship, here’s a masterclass in building and scaling in the entertainment space, and a reminder that you don’t always need a long story, just the right one.

We often underestimate how complex leading a legacy might be. Success, I think, beyond a certain point is perhaps not as proportional to hard work as much as it becomes about who you are, where you are and the opportunities you create for yourself.
To me, Authenticity should be transient. The most interesting question of life is why we are, how we are. In this episode of People by WTF, featuring Kumar Birla, we discuss the different nuances of just that, Life and other things..

WTF is Artificial Intelligence Really? | Yann LeCun x Nikhil Kamath | People by WTF Ep #4
Sunday, December 1, 2024 • Duration 01:36:05
A lot of us have heard conjectures around A.I., edge cases of the positive and negative side of A.I., and a lot of us are trying to predict what’s next. Most of my understanding of A.I. comes only from viewing what is apparent today.. reinforcement learning spaces like chat gpt becoming a go-to..
In this episode of People by WTF, we uncover the basics of this mystery of artificial intelligence with one of the founding fathers of A.I., Yann LeCun. We spoke about popular AI myths and broke down complex concepts that can perhaps help the next generation of builders build in this space.
To learn more about Machine Learning, we’ve collated some sources for your benefit and growth in this industry.

WTF is A.I. Really? Yann LeCun x Nikhil Kamath | People by WTF Ep. 4 Trailer
Wednesday, November 20, 2024 • Duration 01:23
Artificial Intelligence has undeniably transformed our world. Whether it's for better or worse, one thing is certain: it's here to stay.
I often find myself debating - will AI eventually replicate human intelligence, or will it remain a powerful tool, an execution engine for humanity? The deeper you dive, the clearer it becomes that the reality is far more nuanced than it seems.
So, I decided to go back to the basics to figure out how the concept of A.I. even began & finally understand what the systems are that could potentially define our future..

India today is a different India, when compared to 10 years ago. A lot of it has to do with The India Stack Journey (a set of open API's & digital public goods). Interesting to note how opportunity to serve at population scale is the theme of these innovations.
In this episode of People by WTF, we sat with Nandan Nilekani to understand the trajectory of building this advanced Digital Public Infrastructure in India, which has made a significant impact in each of our day to day lives.

Nikhil Kamath x Ranbir Kapoor | People by WTF Ep #2
Sunday, July 28, 2024 • Duration 01:50:30
We all signal a version of ourselves that we think the world should see, but rarely show the sides that make us innately human. I think society misrepresents insecurity as a bad thing.. In my opinion, Insecurity with inaction is a bad thing… insecurity leading to action is a superpower.
In this episode of People by WTF, we have Ranbir Kapoor. While the film industry seems to be all about glamour and box office numbers, I think it is quite interesting to know bits of the other side.
