A.I. - DOOMSDAY OR DESTINY?

Had a truly engaging interaction with the bright media students of Chandigarh University during CommuniGate 2026.We spoke about one of the biggest questions of our times. Will #AI become humanity’s #doomsday, or will it emerge as a powerful #enabler for creativity, productivity and progress in media? My view is clear. AI is not here to replace human wisdom, imagination and ethics. It is here to strengthen them, if used with responsibility. The future of media will belong to those who can combine technology with truth, speed with sensitivity, and innovation with integrity. Wonderful to see young minds asking sharp questions on AI, media ethics, misinformation and the future of journalism.The future is arriving fast. It must be guided by thoughtful minds.
