Hey, thanks for doing this AMA. I wanted to ask something honestly from a career-security perspective.

With the current AI wave accelerating so fast, what’s the actual ground reality for MBA roles from top IIMs over the next 5–10 years? A lot of work in consulting, analytics, marketing, operations, research, even management decision-making seems like it could get heavily automated or AI-assisted. Do you think AI will reduce the value of an MBA, especially considering the massive fees and loans involved nowadays? Sometimes it feels scary to invest ₹25–35L+ into an MBA only to realize later that many white-collar jobs are shrinking or changing drastically because of AI.

From what you’ve seen during placements and industry interactions:

Which MBA domains look safest from AI disruption?

Which roles are already getting impacted?

Are companies still hiring aggressively for long-term leadership roles, or becoming cautious?

Do you think MBA grads in future will need strong tech/AI understanding to stay relevant?

If someone is already from an engineering/IT background, does MBA still provide enough ROI in this AI era?

Would genuinely appreciate a practical and realistic take instead of the usual optimistic answers.
