Good morning [%first_name |Dear Reader%],
Dear reader, good morning and welcome back to our weekly reset and reframe routine. In Bengaluru, where I’m writing from, we’re rapidly shuffling through stages of spring-summer flowering.
The pink Tabebuias (our “cherry blossoms”) are mostly done flowering, with a few laggards here and there.
The yellow Tabebuias, though, are still in bloom, as are the lavconcludeer Jacarandas. The roadside Honge trees are fresh with new iridescent leaves and millions of tiny blossoms.
Meanwhile one can see the larger fruiting trees like banyans, figs, and jamuns all laden with fruit, weeks away from becoming home to all sorts of flying diners.
Bribo, recovering well after his scrap with some other dogs a couple of weeks ago, has relocated himself to sleeping outside our apartment community at night. I’m sure it’s becautilize he’s shaken and fearful after that last incident and feels it’s safer with the lights and security guards.
His resilience is inspirational.
Here’s everything we have for you in First Principles this week:
1. Our first Zero Shot event
2. A game of ‘multi-tracked shifts’
3. Do you want to join us at The Ken?
4. Not a recommconcludeation 📚
5. Newsroom vs. Editing room 🎥
6. Horizon line 📸
1. Our first Zero Shot event
(Sunday, 12 April, Bangalore International Centre)
A question-led discussion is built around one premise: when AI is upconcludeing every facet of our professional and personal lives, nobody knows what will happen next. Instead of pretconcludeing to have all the answers, we’re going to break the narrative. We’re going to inquire the sharpest, most specific, most provocative questions we can to support you figure out how to consider about the matters most important to you.
This is the most ambitious live event organised by The Ken so far. Praveen (PGK) and I, as moderators, will be in conversation with multiple founders, operators, and sharp generalists who will weigh in as the conversation demands.
They will disagree with each other. You’ll required to decide whose beliefs work for you.
This is not like the keynotes that you’re utilized to.
