The Ingenuity Diaries | Cypher Edition
Follow the roar, we said. At , ingenuity found a new pitstop beyond Tiger offices for three days of ideas, conversations and moments worth taking forward.
From tech talks on stage to games and unexpected moments at the booth, there was plenty to unpack.
Across two sessions, our leaders showed ingenuity in action by exploring what it takes for AI to understand a business and work reliably at scale.
Vaishnavi Kandala, Head of AI Labs, and Kakul Paul, Partner and Delivery Unit Leader, took to the stage for “Ontology for Autonomy,” showing
how enterprise data, permissions and domain logic give agentic AI the context to take meaningful business action.
In “From AI Demos to Production,” Bhanu Prasad Mahanti, Partner, Data Science, and Sri Vallabha Deevi, Ph.D., Director, Data Science, discussed the
architecture, reliability, evaluation, security and scale needed to make enterprise AI work beyond the demo.
At the Tiger booth, people came for the games, stayed for the conversations with experts and won plenty of prizes.
Then we called an Ingenuity Break. For twenty minutes, the stage belonged to the crowd. We kicked off asking what ingenuity meant to them and
opened up a conversation on human ingenuity powered by AI. Volunteers were game to become a machine. Goodies found their way to those who
joined in.
There was more to celebrate, too. We brought home two awards. More on that soon.
As Tiger marks its fifteenth year, Cypher was a reminder that ingenuity grows through the questions we ask, the ideas we exchange and the things we dare to try. Here's a glimpse of what happened.
