CEO vs Indian CEO



I’ve been looking at the data from 2010 to now, and honestly, the way Indian CEOs are dominating compared to global leaders is insane.

The numbers do not lie. The amount of Indian-origin CEOs in  Fortune 500 companies has jumped nearly 400% since 2010. they are currently running companies worth over " $3 trillion", which is a massive flex for us on the global stage.

What’s really interesting is the stability. While global CEOs are burning out faster their average tenure dropped to just 5.9 years Indian CEOs are sticking around for an average of 7.4 years. They just seem more trusted for the long game.

Even the firing stats are wild. Globally, about 18–20% of CEOs get let go every year, but for Indian CEOs, it’s only 11–13%. That makes them like 40% safer in their roles. A lot of people say it’s because growing up in India forces you to learn patience and problem-solving way earlier than everyone else.

We definitely still have issues to fix, specifically the lack of women in these roles and the "brain drain" of talent leaving the country. But looking at this trajectory? If this keeps up, Indian CEOs are going to be the absolute standard for leadership by 2030.

Your AI Browser Just Got Hacked by a Post: Understanding the "Indirect Prompt Injection" Threat

Imagine asking your brand-new, super-smart AI browser to summarize a news article, and instead of giving you a summary, it tries to log into your email or send a strange message to your friends. Sound like science fiction? Unfortunately, it's a very real and dangerous security flaw that some cutting-edge AI-powered browsers are currently facing. A user recently reported a concerning incident: they asked their AI browser to "read a Reddit post," and the AI began to "do the things in that post" – implying actions that were certainly not intended by the user. This isn't a fluke; it's a classic example of an indirect prompt injection attack , and it highlights a critical security challenge for the future of AI agents . What is an Indirect Prompt Injection Attack? We're all getting used to "prompting" AI – giving it direct instructions like "Write me a poem" or "Summarize this article." That's a direct prompt.

Why AI Isn’t Going to Take Your Job

Image
  Over the past few years, artificial intelligence (AI) has become one of the hottest topics of discussion. From chat bots to self-driving cars to creative tools, it feels like AI is everywhere. With this rapid progress, a common fear has spread: “AI is going to take away all our jobs.” But here’s the truth — AI is not here to replace you. It’s here to assist, enhance, and open new opportunities. Let’s break this down. AI Replaces Tasks, Not People AI excels at repetitive, routine, and data-heavy tasks. For example, it can process thousands of invoices faster than any accountant, or scan through medical images to spot potential issues more quickly. But notice something: AI is doing the task , not the job . A job is more than just tasks — it involves decision-making, problem-solving, creativity, and human connection. AI is a tool that helps you do those jobs better, not eliminates the need for you. History Shows Technology Creates Jobs Every time a new technology has emerged, p...
