Anand Mahindra Predicts AI-Driven Brain Gain

Anand Mahindra, the head of the Mahindra Group, thinks that India has a big chance to get more smart people.

For a long time, many smart people from India went to the West for studies and jobs.

But now, because it's getting harder to get visas in the West, more people might stay in India.

Mahindra says India can become a place where new ideas are made, not just a place that helps with office work.

He also thinks that new technologies like AI will make jobs that need hands-on skills more important.

He wants to make schools in India better so that students can learn the skills they need for the future.

Mahindra is also working to make sure that people who do hands-on jobs can earn as much as people who work in offices.

He believes AI is not a threat but a helper that can make practical skills very valuable, turning blue-collar jobs into 'gold-collar' professions.
