Pankaj Kedia has been a trailblazer across laptop PC, smartphone, and wearable products, having held leadership roles at Intel and Qualcomm over the last 3 decades. Now an active AI investor, advisor, mentor, and speaker, Pankaj founded 2468 Ventures in 2021 and has since made angel investments in such notable AI companies as Anthropic, Athena, Figure, Groq, and OpenAI. Recently appointed as the Chief AI Officer and board member at Biossmann, a Mexican healthcare solutions company, Pankaj brings a wealth of experience and expertise to the AI space. He holds engineering degrees from IIT Roorkee and the University of Michigan, along with an MBA from Wharton.

In this conversation, we discuss:

  • The journey of transitioning from early AI work in the 1980s to becoming a key player in the wearable revolution.
  • Leadership lessons learned from working with iconic leaders like Andy Grove at Intel and Irwin Jacobs at Qualcomm.
  • The evolution of wearable technology and its role in augmenting human capabilities through AI.
  • The ethical implications and potential risks associated with the integration of AI in wearable devices.
  • Insights into the mindset and qualities of successful AI entrepreneurs and the criteria for investing in disruptive technologies.
  • Predictions about the future of work, the rise of AGI, and the shift towards an age of abundance where work becomes a choice rather than a necessity.
