Kabir's Tech Dives
I'm always fascinated by new technology, especially AI. One of my biggest regrets is not taking AI electives during my undergraduate years. Now, with consumer-grade AI everywhere, I’m constantly discovering compelling use cases far beyond typical ChatGPT sessions.
As a tech founder for over 22 years, focused on niche markets, and the author of several books on web programming, Linux security, and performance, I’ve experienced the good, bad, and ugly of technology from Silicon Valley to Asia.
In this podcast, I share what excites me about the future of tech, from everyday automation to product and service development, helping to make life more efficient and productive.
Please give it a listen!

Google Notebook LM: Founders, Why is it hard to change someone's mind?
As founders, you have to change a lot of minds—leads, customers, investors, the public, you name it.
A neuroscientist explains why people find it difficult to change their minds. Confirmation bias causes people to favor information that aligns with their existing beliefs and disregard information that contradicts them. Anchoring bias causes individuals to cling to initial information even when presented with contradictory evidence. These biases exist because the brain is wired to favor familiarity and avoid change, which is perceived as dangerous. Furthermore, our beliefs are often linked to our sense of self, making it challenging to alter them without threatening our identity.
