“The basic question is not whether AI will replace us. The question is whether we continue to develop the critical thinking, values, and curiosity that drive innovation.” — Prof. Aniruddha Pandit

In my latest conversation with Prof. Aniruddha Pandit—Vice Chancellor of ICT, member of the US National Academy of Engineering, and one of India’s leading chemical engineers—we explored the future of AI, inquiry-based learning, sustainability, and human innovation.

From pioneering hydrodynamic cavitation technologies for water treatment to advocating responsible AI adoption, his message is clear: technology alone is not enough. The future depends on our ability to keep questioning, learning, and innovating.

As he puts it:

”The waste should not be looked at as waste, but as the next resource availability for our planet and sustainability.”

And despite today’s challenges, he remains optimistic:

”Humanity has got that basic intellect for it to survive.”

A powerful discussion on AI, education, water security, circularity, and the future of humanity.
